Marco Williams was 24 years old when he learned his father’s name. It was the first of many things he would discover about himself and his family in a journey into his family’s past. Frontline airs the first-person story of Williams’s seven-year search to learn about his father, to uncover the circumstances surrounding his birth, and to come to terms with what it means to grow up fatherless.
