Summary

What Really Happened.

There were terrible crimes committed against greatly talented American citizens by overzealous and unconscionable government actions. Meet the victims in Shedding Light on the Hollywood Blacklist. Hear for yourself what happened to the innocent, what they went through, how they coped with their persecution, and how they survived the aftermath with their chins up in dignity.

“Dyrector has encountered countless people that help Hollywood sparkle but never get a chance to shine...Screenwriters on the Hollywood Blacklist in the 50's denied work due to their politics...” (Los Angeles Times)
