Fourth Wall Films' Kelly and Tammy Rundle, Emmy®-nominated and award-winning producers of the Hero Street series will talk about the multi-part documentary film project with Hannah Ginder on WOC 1420AM radio on Saturday, February 27 at 10:00 a.m. The Rundles will also talk about their current work on Part 4 in the series, An Infantryman from Hero Street: Joseph Sandoval's Story, which is slated for release later this year.
Only a block and a half long, Second Street in Silvis, Illinois lost six young men in World War II and two in the Korean War, more than any other street in America. Hero Street, as it is now known, has provided over 100 service members since Mexican-American immigrants settled there in 1929.
The Hero Street eight of Silvis, Illinois: Frank Sandoval, Claro Solis/Soliz, Peter Masias, Joseph Sandoval, William Sandoval, John Munos, Joseph Gomez, Tony Pompa.
Hero Street, a multi-part documentary series by Fourth Wall Films, explores the personal and family sagas behind each of the eight heroes and tells the compelling true story of an ongoing struggle to memorialize Tony Pompa, Frank Sandoval, William Sandoval, Claro Solis, Peter Masias, Joseph Sandoval, Joseph Gomez and John S. Muños.
The series combines interviews with family members, friends, veterans, community leaders and historians with vintage photos, film, and archival materials to tell an unforgettable story of American courage, character and perseverance.
