Brett Morgen
Brett Morgen co-directed the 2002 bio-doc about Hollywood producer, Robert Evans, The Kid Stays in the Picture. Now he’s taken on, not a person, but a moment in history. His new documentary film, Chicago 10, captures the wild energy of the riots at the 1968 Democratic convention – and the trial of its so-called provocateurs, Abbie Hoffman, Jerry Rubin and a band of others. He speaks with Faith Salie on Fair Game.
At The World, we believe strongly that human-centered journalism is at the heart of an informed public and a strong democracy. We see democracy and journalism as two sides of the same coin. If you care about one, it is imperative to care about the other.
