"What if God was one of us..."
Join creator and executive producer, Barbara Hall,
for the first event of the new 2004-2005 season featuring
the Emmy nominated drama series, JOAN OF ARCADIA.
What if God suddenly began talking
to you in the form of different people? Would you tell anyone?
Would others think you were crazy? Joan decides to follow
God's advice, keeping it hidden from her police chief father
(Joe Mantegna), her intrusive mother (Mary Steenburgen), her
geeky younger brother (Michael Welch) and her older brother,
a former football star now paralyzed by a car accident (Jason
Ritter).
How many ways have we unknowingly encountered God? What are
ways God uses to get our attention? The multi-Emmy nominated
Hall brings her faith into a hit TV show in a piece of entertainment
that inspires more questions than it answers.
Despite the fact that there were few women writers in TV in
the early 80s, Hall sold her first story to FAMILY TIES and
was soon hired by NEWHART as a comedy writer before being
promoted to story editor. Disliking the roundtable format
of comedy writing, Hall switched to the more personal medium
of television drama (JUDGING AMY, CHICAGO HOPE, MOONLIGHTING,
and I'LL FLY AWAY). Through both comedy and drama, Barbara
has entertained Television viewers over 20 years. Discover
how this believer has been able to mesh her career and beliefs
to not only survive but thrive in the entertainment industry.
