Celebrating Judy Garland Again!

Lorna Luft, one of Judy Garland's talented daughters, reminisces about her legendary mother's incredible contributions to the world of entertainment. Lorna has won acclaim on stage, film and television. Plus, she's also a best-selling author, recording artist and Emmy-nominated producer. Her book, Me and My Shadows: Living with the Legacy of Judy Garland, was optioned by ABC-TV and turned into a riveting miniseries starring Judy Davis. Lorna served as co-executive producer on that project, which won 5 Emmy Awards. Another of Lorna's impressive accomplishments is a multi-media production, Songs My Mother Taught Me, a spectacular concert combining one of the world's most familiar songbooks with her personal memories of her famous mother. A CD based on this event has been released on First Night Records. Returning to help with this episode are film critics James Colt Harrison and Diana Saenger. Diana is the founder of Classic Movie Guide, and James has written a history of MGM the studio where Judy Garland made her wonderful movies. An avid Garland fan, James exclaims, "Judy Garland? She's the all-time favorite of millions of fans, even today!"
