about Marilyn Mulford, producer-director of the documentary
From 1985-1989 she co-produced and directed the award-winning Chicano Park, a feature documentary on a Mexican-American community in San Diego, California, that used murals to describe its history and help residents mobilize to save the community. The film was funded in part by a production grant from CCH. It won a Gold Award at the Houston International Film Festival, a Gold Award at Chicago International Film Festival, a CINE Golden Eagle, “Best of California” at the National Educational Film Festival, and Honorable Mention at the San Francisco Film Festival. It aired on national PBS, and on national cable.
