We had our first day of filming this past week. 

Director of Photography, Jim Karpeichik, captured our first two interviews with Burrillville Historian Pat Mehrtens, seen at left with writer Ken Proudfoot, and George L. Surbuts, former mill worker and longtime administrator of The Assembly Theatre in Harrisville. (Photo: Jim Karpeichik)

On July 11th, we spent the day in the history room at the Jesse Smith Memorial Library with Research Librarian Linda Rivet capturing more than 100 images, including photos, news articles, cards, and documents that will help us tell the story of Austin T. Levy and his amazing life. More news and photos are posted regularly on the Austin T. Levy Film page on Facebook.
