Elaine McMillion Sheldon is an award-winning documentary filmmaker whose storytelling often gravitates towards the misunderstood or underrepresented. While in Huntington for the Appalachian Film Festival, she was kind enough to hang out with us prior to screening her new film, "King Coal," a film exploring the cultural nuances following coal's departure and the potential that remains within the region.
In the recording, we discuss her early years as an Oprah-admiring, T-shirt sending, coal miner's daughter who adapted to tell her stories via film after changes in the media landscape. However, that change ultimately opened the door to telling stories in a more thorough, thoughtful manner. Her work has resulted in well-deserved praise, however, her passion to tell impactful stories remains unchanged by the early success in her relatively young career. We hope you enjoy the episode and knowing that we have folks like Elaine out in the world representing our region.
