BAWIFM Presents: REEL Success Story with Dorothy Fadiman September 9, 2009

Bay Area Women in Film in Media is proud to present a REEL Success Story with Dorothy Fadiman.

Since 1976, OSCAR-nominated, EMMY-winning filmmaker Dorothy Fadiman has been on a remarkable journey, producing twenty documentary films, covering many different subjects.


The films explore a variety of areas, from the light of Spirit in every faith (RADIANCE: The Experience of Light) to progressive education that honors children’s natural knowing (WHY DO THESE KIDS LOVE SCHOOL?) to the extraordinary healing progress of a woman with spinal cord injury (MOMENT by MOMENT: The Healing Journey of Molly Hale). Films about women's issues include these WOMAN by WOMAN: New Hope for the Villages of India, From RISK to ACTION: Women and HIV/AIDS in Ethiopia and a trilogy: FROM the BACK ALLEYS to the SUPREME COURT & BEYOND.

We look forward to seeing clips from a variety of Dorothy's films and hearing from her about her journey into filmmaking and her life’s work.
