Find a great career doing something you love
Faculty Excellence is a series which focuses on faculty members who excel in their field of study. Jean Harper wrote and directed the documentary 1:47 which premiered in Vivian Auditorium on April 4, 2008 She decided to make this documentary to show the younger Richmond residents the history of the downtown area along with some reasons for Richmond's current state.
