Florida Premiere of Documentary Zora's Roots April 29, 2008

'Zora's Roots' is a tribute to the most prolific woman writer of the Harlem Renaissance, tracing Hurston's life and work from her childhood to her work as a playwright for Paramount Pictures, to contributor to the Saturday Evening Post, to her anthropologic field work in Honduras and Haiti, and eventually back to Florida, where she died penniless and was buried in an unmarked grave.
