2:15 1 hr. 22 min. GEORGE STONEY July 7, 2010
George C. Stoney the dean of American documentary film, and the founder of the citizens movement that gave every American the right to a public-access television show of his or her own, died on July 12 at his home in Manhattan at 96. This program consists of my interview with him, sketches about his life, and the showing of his centerpiece documentary film, "All My Babies," (1953), a film originally commissioned by the Georgia Department of Public Health to educate midwives working in poverty-stricken rural areas. It became a classic. In filming "All My Babies," Mr. Stoney, the son of a North Carolina preacher, met all the safe-practices requirements demanded by the health department. But in the hope of better transmitting the information to a largely illiterate audience, he recruited a 51-year-old midwife named Mary Coley to play the protagonist in a series of dramatic re-enactments. The movie, which includes a 15-minute sequence showing a live birth, was widely considered a propaganda masterpiece, in the best sense. It became a staple of medical school curriculums, and was distributed by Unesco and the World Health Organization. In 2002 the film was added to the National Film Registry of the Library of Congress, a list that essentially defines the American film canon. Mr. Stoney, who taught filmmaking at New York University from 1970 until his death, was acclaimed in equal measure for his roles as a filmmaker, teacher and prophet of social change at the barrel of a camera.
