NY PREMIERE Liz Carpenter was a trailblazing Texas journalist, White House advisor, activist, and feminist who knocked down gender barriers in American politics. Five-time DOC NYC alumna Abby Ginzberg teamed up with Christy Carpenter for this thoroughly delightful remembrance of Christy’s mother. Liz’s humor, candor and legendary persuasive abilities are brought back to vivid immediacy through archives and interviews. – Jaie Laplante
