TV Show

Biography is a documentary television series. It was originally a half-hour filmed series produced for CBS by David Wolper from 1961 to 1964 and hosted by Mike Wallace. The A&E Network later re-ran it and has produced new episodes since 1987. The older version featured historical figures such as Helen Keller and Mark Twain, or long-dead entertainment figures such as Will Rogers or John Barrymore. The A&E series has placed the emphasis on such people as Marilyn Monroe, Elvis Presley, Plácido Domingo, Freddie Mercury, Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis, Eric Clapton, Pope John Paul II, Gene Tierney, Selena, Diego Rivera, Mao Zedong and Queen Elizabeth II, and fictional characters like The Phantom, Superman, Hamlet, Betty Boop, and Santa Claus. The program ended up profiling enough figures that in 1999, A&E spun it off into an entire network, The Biography Channel.

Set against 40 years of music history, this six-part documentary series takes a deep dive into the paradox of America’s criminalization of the genre and its fascination with the street culture that created it and still exists within it. Instead of telling the story of hip hop from the top down, this documentary tells the story from the streets up, as it reveals the untold story of how America’s streets helped shape hip hop culture from an expression of survival and defiance into music’s most dominant genre.

Stage Left

TV Show

Everyone remembers their first concert. The lights, the sounds, the smells; they travel with us through time. But what happens on stage contributes to more than just the music we know and love. Stage Left, a docu-series in conjunction with the maker of The Last Blockbuster, invites people to consider the past, present, and future of live entertainment. From their nostalgic past, to their current fight for survival, local venues are being faced with two visions for the future: One in which they close their doors for good, and one where the value of saving these stages starts to become recognized. Full of familiar faces from bands like Foo Fighters, Fitz and the Tantrums, UK's #1 chart-topper Frank Turner, Pepper and more, mixed with the off-the-wall venue characters from these temples of art, Stage Left explores the often overlooked impact of live music and entertainment as told by the people who help create it.
