We are very pleased to announce that our documentary "An Infantryman from Hero Street" has received a Mid-America Emmy nomination!
Congratulations to the MANY people and the
Hero Street community who made this important film possible. We are deeply grateful to Lora Adams and WQPT-PBS.
A note of special recognition and thanks goes out to our 'storytellers': Tanilo Sandoval (and family), Georgia Sandoval Herrera (and Norbert Herrera & Pauline Callen), Henry Sandoval (and family), Irene Mawson (and Bonnie Patton & Thomasa Shadden), Marc Wilson, Capt. Kevin Braafladt, John C. McManus, Carlos Harrison; and to our dedicated and talented cast: Emmanuel Juarez, Eric Juarez and Matt Walsh. Also to Chris Ryder and Lora Adams for their creative assistance and support on this project, and to Hero Street theme composer William Campbell.
This documentary film series would not be possible without the generous support of our donors, supporters and our sponsors. Fundraising is the most challenging part of the work we do. These stories we tell would not be preserved if not for the many wonderful people who have contributed to this important project. To say we are grateful is an understatement.
This Emmy nomination is for 'the boys'--the Hero Street eight.
Below we share WHBF's coverage of the story!
