Has "Star Trek" changed the world? Author Ryan Britt examines a legacy lasting 50 years... and beyond.
Featured on the June 23rd, 2022 edition of ARIZONA SPOTLIGHT with host Mark McLemore:
- Explore the long and prosperous life of _Star Trek_-- from the 1960s series to today -- when there are actually five Star Trek series on television at the same time. Ryan Britt, senior entertainment editor at Fatherly, is the author of Phasers on Stun: How the Making (and Remaking) of Star Trek Changed the World. Mark and Ryan share their enthusiasm for a TV show that had a positive impact on both of their lives.
- Meet Maryanne Chisholm, a successful Tucson artist who discovered that passion while serving more than a decade behind bars. Chisholm tells Tony Paniagua how the Prison Arts Program provides inspiration and hope to women living in incarceration.
