UW-Madison prof makes film ‘In the Shadow of Ebola’

University of Wisconsin-Madison professor Gregg Mitman was in Liberia last summer to make a film about the African country’s past. And then the present erupted. Mitman is n is the curator of the UW-Madison’s Tales From Planet Earth Festival, a biennial festival that uses film to explore people’s relationship to the environment. This fall’s festival, which takes place Nov. 6 to 8, will explore the intersection of science and faith.
