A lot of focus on filmmakers this month, including an upcoming documentary about one of the most iconic songs ever recorded — “American Pie.” We have the back story behind the making of that film.
We also look at a local filmmaker whose work is currently on display at the Silver City Community Film Festival. That’s a great opportunity to see inside the world of independent filmmakers trying to make it in a tough industry and just beginning their journey.
One of my favorite interviews this month was with Tanishia Womack, who creates books with her sons as part of their family time. It’s a great way to connect in their home. I hope you enjoy their story.
As you’re exploring this edition, think about the people you know and the places to which you’ve been. We want to share the stories of people and places from all corners of southern New Mexico. Please send your story ideas my way and we’ll get to as many of them as we can. Desert Exposure is your magazine, focuses on the arts, the people, and the history of Silver City and beyond. You can reach me by email at kurt@lascrucesbulletin.com.
Thanks for reading Desert Exposure and watch for our annual lifestyle magazine, “Life is Good in Silver City,” on news racks in early October.
Hope you enjoy exploring these stories with us.
