The Revolution Will Be Televised
The Leonard Lopate Show | May 10, 2010
If you watch a program from David Simon or Jenji Kohan, you'll never think of television as "the boob tube" again. She's the creator and executive producer of the Showtime series "Weeds" about a suburban widow who becomes a pot dealer, and he's the creator of the HBO's "The Wire", a gritty police drama set in Baltimore. They'll explain how they write and what happens from script to screen.
Event: Jenji Kohan and David Simon will be part of a panel discussion titled "Outside the Box: Television Masterminds"
Saturday, October 6th at 10:00 am
