Documentary Filmmaker LeAnn Erickson: “Top Secret Rosies” and “I (heart) Jack LaLanne: A Cartoon Memoir,” In-Person

Independent filmmaker LeAnn Erickson will screen and discuss two of her movies on Thursday, March 6, in Southern Illinois University Carbondale’s Morris Library.

The free, public screening and discussion is from 3-5 p.m. in the library’s John C. Guyon Auditorium. Erickson will have an audience Q&A after the screenings.

Erickson will screen “I (heart) Jack LaLanne: A Cartoon Memoir,” a short documentary that she wrote, directed, animated and edited and co-produced with her son, Jake Rasmussen. She will also share and discuss her 2010 documentary film, “Top Secret Rosies: The Female Computers of WWII” (pictured).

Erickson said she looks forward to sharing the two films, which “demonstrate very different approaches to documentary filmmaking, yet both share personal stories that touch on history and culture.”
