Tuesday, October 7, 2014
7:00 pm - 10:00 pm
1000 Flower St.

The six-part MAKERS series profiles the impact women have had over the past 50 years in industries once largely closed to women -- comedy, politics, space, war, business, and Hollywood. Through intimate interviews with trailblazing women known and unknown, viewers will be given a rare glimpse -- sometimes funny, sometimes sad, and always candid -- of what it was like to be pioneers in their fields.

Makers: Women in Hollywood showcases the women of showbiz, from the earliest pioneers to present-day power players, as they influence the creation of one of the country’s biggest commodities: entertainment. Produced by Rory Kennedy with Producer/Director Linda Goldstein Knowlton, the Julia Roberts-narrated documentary is scheduled to air October 7 on PBS at 9pm.
