Bookwaves/Artwaves is produced and hosted by Richard Wolinsky. Links to assorted local theater & book venues   Susanna Clarke: “Jonathan Strange and Mr. Norrell.” Susanna Clarke in 2006 Susanna Clarke, author of the classic fantasy novel, Jonathan Strange & Mr. Norrell, interviewed September 12, 2005 in the KPFA studios. ​​​​​Back in the fall of 2004, a new fantasy novel, Jonathan Strange and Mr. Norrell by a newcomer, Susannah Clarke, became an instant classic, finding its way to best-seller lists in the U.K. and United.States, and winning the Hugo Award for 2004's best novel at the 2005  World Science Fiction Convention. This interview with Susannah Clarke was recorded while on tour for the paperback edition of Jonathan Strange and Mr. Norrell, and has not aired in two decades. Both Christopher Hampton and Julian Fellowes took stabs at writing a film adaptation of Jonathan Strange and Mr. Norrell, but both were unable to translate the very long novel into a screenplay, and then New Line cancelled the project. It was eventually developed into a seven -part miniseries for the BBC, and aired in both the United States and Britain in 2015. It is now streaming on Amazon Prime. After the publication of Jonathan Strange and Mr. Norrell, and the awards, Susannah Clarke continued to work on the sequel, set in the same universe a few years later, but became bogged down, almost sentence by sentence, as chronic fatigue syndrome took its toll. By 2015, after visiting the set of the BBC production, she decided to go another route, and went back to another manuscript that likely pre-dated her best-seller. That novel, Piranesi, was published to mostly favorable reviews in 2020. She is now working on a third novel.

Welcome to Dreaming in Color, a show hosted by Darren Isom, a partner with The Bridgespan Group, that provides a space for social change leaders of color to reflect on how their life experiences, personal and professional, have prepared them to lead and drive the impact we all seek.

Some of Color Farm's social impact films include John Lewis: Good Trouble and The Big Payback, about the reparations movement. Join this conversation as Darren and Erika discuss the significance of her iconic character Maxine Shaw from Living Single and how that led to the so-called “Maxine Shaw Effect” which inspired many young women to pursue careers in leadership and law.

Complete Interview.   Artwaves Errol Morris, documentary film maker and author of “The Ashtray (Or the Man Who Denied Reality)” in conversation with Richard Wolinsky. Noted film maker Errol Morris was in graduate school in philosophy when he argued with his professor, Thomas Kuhn. Kuhn threw an ashtray at Morris and had him kicked out of school. The argument was about truth. Kuhn said it was relative; Morris said it was real. All of Errol Morris's work as a director and documentary artist focuses on truth, whether it be “The Fog of War” and Robert McNamara, or “The Thin Blue Line,” or even his latest project, the Netflix series “Wormwood.” In this interview, he talks about his feelings regarding Kuhn, the nature of truth and its relationship to the current Washington regime, the origins of “The Thin Blue Line' and other matters.

Dawn Porter was reluctant to call herself a Director, even after her movie premiered at Sundance and got picked up by HBO. Today her award-winning documentaries (John Lewis: Good Trouble, The Way I See It) are an invaluable addition to the historical record, but her humility keeps her from calling herself an activist. In this episode, we're using Dawn's expertise – she was once a practicing attorney – to renegotiate the contracts that keep women from assuming titles we don't think we're qualified for, even when we have more than enough on our resumes. Dawn takes us through her incredible journey from comfortable DC lawyer to celebrated documentarian, covering topics such as: The importance of advocating for yourself with as much passion as you advocate for others How to free yourself from the traps of structure and comfort to take on your next, great adventure How to use mistakes as stepping stones to your next success Learning how to get comfortable with discomfort Stepping into your power and your title as a woman in charge Acknowledging the danger of “if it ain't broke, don't fix it,” because sometimes breaking things is the first step to your next great adventure. In Dawn's case, it led her to flying on with Oprah in her private jet to meet Harry (yes, that Harry)OUR GUEST: Dawn Porter is an award-winning documentary filmmaker. Her latest film, The Lady Bird Diaries - about first lady Lady Bird Johnson, just premiered at SXSW. She has had a busy decade - she made a great ESPN documentary series 37 Words about Title IX, the civil rights legislation that gave women the equal opportunity to play sports, and her mental health series The Me You Can't See, which she made with Oprah and Prince Harry, premiered on Apple TV. You may also have seen her films John Lewis: Good Trouble about the legendary Congressman and Civil Rights leader or The Way I See It, about photojournalist Pete Souza, who served as Chief Official White House photographer for President Barack Obama.Make sure to watch Dawn's latest film The Lady Bird Diaries, when it airs on Paramount Plus and Showtime this fall.

[REBROADCAST FROM JULY 2, 2020] Director Dawn Porter discusses her documentary, "John Lewis: Good Trouble." 

For Democrats, the late civil rights icon Rep. John Lewis' legacy of stirring up "good trouble" continued early Friday November 13th, 2020, as results from the 17-term congressman's district helped push the lead in Georgia for former Vice President Joe Biden. NBC, CNN, and the New York Times called Georgia for Biden on Friday, November 13th.But poll workers in Georgia are still completing a hand recount of votes, because the margin between Joe Biden and President Trump was less than .5%. Biden is still projected to win Georgia, and there's quite a bit of political momentum in the state looking ahead to January's two Senate run-offs, which could determine which party takes control of the Senate.On this show, we're bringing back a previous episode featuring film director Dawn Porter, whose documentary "John Lewis: Good Trouble" was released on Amazon Prime in July. Her film honors the late civil rights icon and reminds viewers to work on behalf of other people, and hold onto hope when faced with challenges, even when it’s overwhelming.Porter's interview with USA TODAY's Eileen Rivers is part of our newsroom's Leader of Change project, which highlights activists across the country and their work advancing social justice in 2020. If you know someone who you believe is a 'leader of change,' you can nominate them online here.

Note from Patrick: You can watch The Way I See It on Fri. Oct. 16 at 10 p.m. ET on MSNBC. The new documentary The Way I See It looks at former presidents Barack Obama and Ronald Reagan through the eyes of photographer Pete Souza. During his time as an official White House photographer, Souza captured the profound, intimate, funny and dignified moments of two of the most iconic presidents in modern history. The Way I See It is directed by Dawn Porter who also made the wonderful and inspiring documentary John Lewis: Good Trouble. Fortunately for us, both Pete and Dawn are my guests on I'm So Obsessed. We discuss why empathy is important for a leader to have, the passing of John Lewis, the significance of professional athletes protesting the shooting of Jacob Blake and what it is like having President Obama officiate your wedding.

Dawn Porter made the transition from a successful lawyer to a successful documentary filmmaker. But there were no guarantees. She took a big risk but she took it for very specific reasons, in a way that eventually led her to more success. Her new film The Way I See It, chronicles the story of Pete D'Souza, the official White House photographer for Ronald Reagan and Barrack Obama. Earlier this year, another Dawn Porter documentary, John Lewis: Good Trouble was released on Hulu. Her insights into the process are invaluable. The Way I See It is currently out in limited release and will be broadcast on MSNBC on October 9th, 2020. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

After working at Cincinnati-based Convergys for close to two decades, Lisa Stoner wanted out. She wasn’t learning or contributing as much as she once had been and wasn’t excited. But it wasn’t until she hit the 20-year mark that she got the courage to take a year-long sabbatical. Today, Lisa is the global head of support operations at Uber and chair of the Women of Uber employee resource group. On episode 68, she shares what it was like to navigate her career transition, the importance of diversity and inclusion, why it’s never too late to pursue a dream and two of her epic failures, including the time she left her 8-week-old son in the hospital for what seemed to be an important work event.

As the COVID-19 pandemic continues to keep the nation's movie theaters shuttered, struggling film production studios and streaming services such as HBO, Hulu, Netflix and Amazon are keeping their audiences entertained with a steady stream of multi-part series, documentaries and new feature films.
