Roger’s widow, Chaz Ebert, and filmmaker Steve James (Hoop Dreams, The Interrupters) share stories, clips, and outtakes from the summer’s most-talked-about film. Alison Cuddy, CHF’s program director and former WBEZ 91.5 host, will guide the conversation. This program is generously underwritten by Carol Rosofsky and Robert B. Lifton.
