Arguably the most influential creator, writer, and producer in the history of television, Norman Lear brought primetime into step with the times. Using comedy and indelible characters, his legendary 1970s shows such as All in the Family, Maude, Good Times, and The Jeffersons boldly cracked open dialogue and shifted the national counsciousness, injecting enlightened huanism into sociopolitical debates on race, class, creed, and feminism. This film is the definitve chronicle of Mr. Lear's life, work, and achievements.
