The Video Literacy Project will begin airing half-hour weekly episodes on SQTV beginning Nov. 1. Host Judy Breen will interview SQ readers and writers, along with an occasional outside guest, about books for recommended reading. With a focus on great reads, the interviews, filmed by members of the SQTV production crew, will cover topics as diverse as science fiction, fantasy, self-improvement, books by living writers, prize-winning books, best-selling books and will occasionally explore the guest’s own writing.
The series is produced with the co-operation of the San Quentin Library, and the materials reviewed and discussed during the program can be browsed and checked out on a special shelf in the library. A mail box will be set up to collect subject matter recommendations from viewers.
