Film on Pittsburgh Courier features Washburn
A new PBS documentary about The Pittsburgh Courier includes several interview segments with the JSchool’s Prof. Patrick Washburn. The film, "Paper of Record: The Pittsburgh Courier, 1907-1965," has won a CINE Golden Eagle Award for excellence in the visual arts. In the video below, Washburn discusses his role as historical consultant for the documentary.
Produced by Pittsburgh resident Ken Love, the documentary is scheduled to appear on PBS stations throughout the country. Love is a former long-time filmmaker for National Geographic magazine.
This is the second PBS television documentary that I have been an historical consultant and appeared in. The first was "The Black Press: Soldiers without Swords," which came out in 1999 and won a lot of awards.
