Summary:This award-winning program is a wise and witty portrait of the outspoken activist, Jessica Mitford, whose scathing expose of the funeral industry, The American Way of Death, gained her instant notoriety. From her acid pen came The Trial of Dr. Spock, a critique of the 1968 trial of the Boston Five. Next came Kind and Unusual Punishment, a catalyzing force behind the prison reform movement. The story of Mitford's life is interwoven with the issues of post-war America - civil rights, communism and the anti-war movement. Personal recollections, archival footage, and accounts by family and friends round out this portrait of a woman whose dedication to causes has led to significant social change.
Target Audience:For High School; College; Adult audiences.
Awards:Red Ribbon, American Film and Video Festival, 1988
Silver Apple, National Educational Film Festival, 1987
