Winning the Emmy Award for "Bi-Racial Hair"

Interview on WUNC (North Carolina Public Radio)

As described on their site:

"Not Yet Rain: Abortion politics in the United States often obscure the more unsettling truths about women’s reproductive health care in developing countries. For example, unsafe abortion is still a leading cause of maternal death in Africa. Filmmaker Lisa Russell hopes to shed some light on the issue with her new film, “Not Yet Rain,” which is screening at the Durham Arts Center tonight. She joins host Frank Stasio by phone to share stories from her time filming in Ethiopia."
