Faculty Focus: Melinda Levin and Irene Klaver
A collaboration between Melinda Levin, the chair of our Department of Radio, Television and Film, and Irene Klaver, an associate professor in our Department of Philosophy and Religion Studies, sparked the Global Rivers Project, a sprawling documentary that explores people's relationships with rivers around the world. Ms. Levin was one of three executive producers of the documentary and shot footage of the Rio Grande, along with Liz Daggett, a former master's student in the documentary film program. Dr. Klaver, who also directs UNT's Philosophy of Water Project, served as a consultant and co-directed the Rio Grande portion of the project.
