Anna DeVeare Smith

The Rodney King Riots is a topic that I know very little about. I was only 14 when the riots occurred and wasn’t actually living in the United States at the time. With that said hopefully that will enable me to view Anna DeVeare Smith’s, “Twilight Los Angeles” without any preconceived notions about the event.

By watching the short clips on the PBS website it is very obvious that DeVeare Smith is an extremely talented actress who wants to present the varied reactions of the people most closely affected by this event that shook up a community and also a country. I very much look forward to viewing the video!

Stephanie,
I'm glad it looks interesting to you. We will explore Anna Deveare Smith's work as research and publication methodologies. She is an educator first and an actor by methodology. All sorts of imaginative and expressive methodologies are at y/our fingertips. What would you like to explore for your own work?
