Check out today's Labor Day Weekend edition of UPFRONT Inside Atlanta's Entertainment Industry. It features my interviews from the BronzeLens Film Festival's Women Superstars Luncheon.

Acclaimed director Twinkie Byrd discusses her new film, Counter1960.  Filmmakers Muta Ali and Lisa Arrindell explain their new passion project Turtle-vs-Octopuss and Queen Sugar star Tina Lifford opens up about playing "Aunt Vi" and more. 

UPFRONT also talks to Philadelphia soul music diva Lady Alma about her return to music and Brownstone singer turned producer and filmmaker Nicci Gilbert is discussing her indie project Social Conflict. I also play music from Lady Alma and the King of Pop - Michael Jackson, who would have turned 60-years-old this week.
