Hurston biographer, Cheryl Wall, traces Zora's unique artistic vision back to her childhood in Eatonville, Florida, the first all-black incorporated town in the U.S. Zora Neale Hurston was a pioneering writer and anthropologist, and one of the first black women to enter the American literary canon for Their Eyes Were Watching God. She established the African American vernacular as one of the most vital, inventive voices in American literature. This definitive film biography, eighteen years in the making, portrays Zora in all her complexity: gifted, flamboyant, and controversial, but always fiercely original.=0D=0A=0D=0AStart time:7:30 pm
