Gordon Parks: The South in Color isn’t the first time Anna Walker Skillman has exhibited the work of the iconic photographer at her gallery, Jackson Fine Art. When more than seventy color transparencies from the seminal trip at the base of his epochal 1956 Life magazine photo essay “The Restraints: Open and Hidden” were found at the bottom of an old storage bin in 2011, the Gordon Parks Foundation contacted Skillman and fellow gallery owner friend Arnika Dawkins for the first exhibition of them in 2012. Then in 2015, Skillman dovetailed the celebrated Gordon Parks: Segregation Story exhibition at the High Museum. Over a decade later, Skillman remains intimately involved with Parks’s epic work.

When Beth Hyland first shopped around the script for her play Fires, Ohio, multiple theater companies told her it was unproducible. There wasn’t a problem with the dialogue or the plot; the script, humorous and gripping, had already won both the Kennedy Center’s Paula Vogel Award in Playwriting and the Mark Twain Prize for Comic Playwriting. The setting itself was the issue: a two-story house in an Ohio town, surrounded by a raging wildfire.
