Clinton School graduate Jack Lofton will premier his new political documentary, Ann Richards Texas on Thursday at the AFI Silvedocs Film Festival in Silver Springs, Md.
Lofton is co-director and producer of the film that chronicles the life and rise of former Texas Gov. Ann Richards, who was the last Democrat to govern the state before she was defeated by George W. Bush in 1994. The film weaves together over 65 interviews with family, friends, former staff and leading politicos, including Bill Clinton, Nancy Pelosi, Tom Brokaw, Dan Rather, Dolly Parton, Willie Nelson, Lily Tomlin, Paul Begala and Mark McKinnon.
Here’s the trailer:
