416. Documenting the Story of Failure and New Beginnings

At a recent Summit during the Sundance Film Festival, Food Tank and 360 Communications presented a day of programming focused on food, environment, and the arts. This episode of “Food Talk with Dani Nierenberg” features a panel from the event about the new documentary “Susan Feniger. FORKED.” The film follows award-winning Chef Susan Feniger’s passionate struggle and quest to bring global street food under one roof in the form of a new LA restaurant: STREET. During the panel, Chef Feniger, Liz Lachman, the film’s Writer, Director, and Producer; and Lisa Donmall-Reeve, Producer and Creative Director at LDR Creative LLC, discuss the male-dominated culinary industry that Chef Feniger navigated throughout her career; the friendship between Chef Feniger and Chef Mary Sue Milliken that is central to the documentary; and the story of how the film came to be.
