Current Projects

Hazel Brannon Smith The Hazel Brannon Smith Story
I have recently completed editing a documentary about this Pulitzer Prize winning Mississippi newspaper editor who dared to print the truth when other newspapers wouldn’t. The documentary is produced and directed by my associate, Wendy Reed. I just added a few finishing touches.
Dr. Doug Phillips Discovering Alabama
I’m also collaborating with Wendy on a couple of upcoming episodes of Discovering Alabama, the long running series on Alabama Public Television hosted by Dr. Doug Phillips. One of the episodes involves the legacy and impact of the series here in Alabama and the other is about waterfalls in Alabama. For more on Discovering Alabama, visit the website at discoveringalabama.org.
Glimpse Other Projects Under Development
I am one of several producers contributing to the development of a new interview series called Glimpse. We’re looking for interesting people with compelling stories to tell. I’m also in the early stages of developing a grant proposal for a couple of music documentaries.
Max Shores TCF 145
Although I’m not teaching this semester, I frequently teach TCF 145, an intro to TV & Film production class in the department of Telecommunication and Film at the University of Alabama. I really enjoy teaching and the students are inspiring!
