Editorial projects over the past year have involved a road trip in Portugal’s Centro and Alentejo regions, visits to Holland's historic cities and a journey to the island of Bermuda. Feature stories and films resulting from these projects are published and available to share. In 2017, we plan to complete editorial features and films on France's Dordogne Valley; the highlands of Peru; Chattanooga, Tennessee; and a Southern Ocean expedition to the Falkland Islands and South Georgia.

Our short documentary film on Iran was recently selected for screening in the 9th Annual Iranian Film Festival in San Francisco. This was an unexpected honor. Iranians take filmmaking seriously—and their country has produced some of the world’s finest directors and screenwriters. Another film, titled The Dream Revisited, Civil Rights in Perspective, had its premier screening at the Harvey B. Gantt Center in Charlotte, N.C. before a standing-room-only audience.

The magazine we edit, Charleston Style & Design, is now distributed in over 400 Barnes & Noble stores nationwide in addition to upscale venues throughout the Southeast.
