Cafeteria Man

Cafeteria Man changed the conversation around school nutrition everywhere it screened. The story of Tony Geraci's revolutionary transformation of the Baltimore City School System's 400 public schools is legendary. From a major city school district that served frozen pizza to one that had fresh food and both student and parent participation is remarkable.The extensive screening campaign that surrounded this film impacted cities and taught nutritionists to think out of the box, like Tony.

Climb Against The Odds

Climb Against the Odds was a landmark film that transformed my career from entertainment media to cause-related films. 26 million people saw this film on ABC Network and on PBS and it transformed the conversation around breast cancer. At the time of its release, in 1999, Breast Cancer was the second largest killer of women in the world and there was next to no research funding. The fight is far from over to prevent breast cancer but there is hardly a place one can go where there isn't a walk or run to support continued research.

Burning the Future: Coal in America (2008) was among the first films to blow the whistle on the devastating practice of mountain top removal mining in West Virginia. More than six major films were later produced around this same story often with the same characters. Led by filmmaker David Novack this film had a robust screening effort and is reviewed, including an in depth interview with David in Lesson 4 of Making Media That Matters. Maria Gunoe, the central figure of the film, won the Goldman Prize for North America and received $100,000 for her community.
