ENCORE CONVERSATIONS AT THE CULVER WITH LUIS FUERTE

ENCORE CONVERSATIONS AT THE CULVER WITH LUIS FUERTE


July 7, 2019

RSVP required for this encore presentation. To reserve a seat email: inlandia@inlandiainstitute.org
The Inlandia Institute is responding to popular demand with this encore presentation by Luis Fuerte, award winning cameraman and author of Louie, Take a Look at This!: My Time with Huell Howser (Prospect Park Books, 2017).
Based on his years working with Huell Howser on California’s Gold, Fuerte’s book embraces the dissimilarities between Fuerte’s and Howser's personalities and backgrounds. Fuerte attributes the pair’s onscreen chemistry to this diversity, attributing their success in large part to that interplay.
As well as the stories of everyday people and those behind the scenes of much that is magic in California, Fuerte makes insightful observations about Huell. “I came to realize that he was genuinely and deeply interested in the people he interviewed and their personal stories. He was truly fascinated with his discoveries, from the stupendous to the downright ordinary. They all mattered to him.”
This event will take place at the Culver Center of the Arts located at 3824 Main Street, on July 7th at 1:30pm.
