In 1982, I produced I Heard It Through The Grapevine, a documentary film that took the writer on a journey back through the Civil Rights South.  From Selma to Birmingham to the battleground beaches of St. Augustine, FL, along the way Jimmy meets Chinua Achebe, Sterling Brown, Amiri Baraka and others.

The film’s print and all related materials are being restored and preserved at the Harvard Film Archives. It is available here.

Thank you
