My editing partner Salia Hovanec and I were honored to edit the amazing feature-length documentary Fortunate Sons for multi Emmy-Award winning, and Peabody-Award winning director Peter Jones.

​

In 1968 – while The Beatles rocked a generation, and the assassinations of Martin Luther King and Robert Kennedy shocked the nation – seventy-two 12 year-old boys entered the 7th grade at the elite, all-male, military Harvard School for Boys in Los Angeles - the young men of “the biggest generation” being groomed to lead American society.

​

These are the real-life stories of American men who grew up together and, now, as they prepare to celebrate their 50th high school reunion, embrace their friendships and lean into the truths of their journeys with humor and vulnerability.

 

Fortunate Sons explores the challenges that all Americans have confronted as the world around them changed more rapidly and in more ways than anyone expected.
