One of
America’s leading dramatists, Horton Foote has accumulated a wealth of
professional honors over his 60-plus-year career—the National Medal of Arts,
two Oscars, a Pulitzer Prize, and election to the Theatre Hall of Fame, to
name only a few. In this program, Bill Moyers talks with Foote about his new
play The Carpetbagger’s Children and three concepts that had a
distinct influence on it: family, memory, and home. In the process, they
open a window on what it is like to be a writer for stage and screen as they
discuss topics ranging from the art of storytelling to the dynamics of the
creative process. Biographical background on how Foote got his start as an
actor and a dramatist is also included. (43 minutes)
