There's an ulterior motive too, since some of these treasures have recently become available to our supporters on CD [www.thiswayout.org]. In snippets from three classic programs, you'll hear how the first NATIONAL MARCH ON WASHINGTON FOR LESBIAN AND GAY RIGHTS took shape, in the context of the times, just a year after Milk took office. After a musical segue featuring artists from our "AUDIOFILE 2002 YEAR IN REVIEW", a sample from the documentary "DIMINISHED CAPACITY" recalls Milk's shocking assassination before the demonstration of his dreams could become a reality. . . . 4:25 SEGMENT #3 - "TWO" I.D. by comedian/actress MARGARET CHO ("Notorious C.H.O.") [:15] + PARIS BARCLAY makes winning back-to-back TV directing Emmy awards sound easy, but that's certainly false modesty. Following college and post-graduate work in the theatre, the openly gay African American Harvard grad came to television by way of advertising, getting his start directing commercials, and later music videos. That led to work on several U.S. network TV shows, including the long-running medical drama "ER", and to ultimately finding a home at another multi-award-winning series, the gritty police drama "NYPD Blue". When he chatted with This Way Out correspondent CHARLY LANG last year, Barclay had plenty on his plate to talk about, including his Emmys-winning "Blue" work, diversity advocacy at the Directors Guild of America, Board membership with the Los Angeles Gay & Lesbian Community Services Center, and regular column for the "Advocate" (intro/outro music from the "NYPD Blue" opening theme) [11:25]. . . 11:40 Closing Continuity/Credits. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1:15 TOTAL PROGRAM TIME. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 28:55 ----------------------------Please note-------------------------------- Anyone with questions, suggestions, or *news stories* is encouraged to email Coordinating Producer Greg Gordon at TWOradio@aol.co ----------------------------- thanks! --------------------------------- STATION PROMO COPY: ANNCR: NEXT TIME ON "THIS WAY OUT", THERE ARE NO "BLUES" FOR DOUBLE-EMMY- WINNING BLACK GAY TV DIRECTOR PARIS BARCLAY, AND A PEEK INTO THIS WAY OUT'S AUDIO ARCHIVES YIELDS SOME WELL-TIMED HISTORICAL GEMS AND TIMELESS MUSIC...
