Dr. Steven A. Channing
Executive Producer
Dr. Channing brings a wide range of experiences as an historian, author and regional Emmy Award-winning filmmaker. He has a Ph.D. from the University of North Carolina. Beginning in the 1980s, he began to communicate true stories about the American past through documentary film and educational television. His initial productions include America's 400th Anniversary, narrated by Andy Griffith, and Loyalty On Trial, which explores Constitutional history, and received the American Bar Association's Silver Gavel award. The following year, he produced the Emmy Award-winning historical drama Alamance for PBS, on the coming of the American Revolution. Dr. Channing plans to bring his enthusiasm for preserving and sharing stories of our past to the great story of race and leadership in Durham, North Carolina in a project entitled Durham: A Self-Portrait.
