111: Profiling Toni Morrison

Toni Morrison, who passed away in August at age 88, is the subject of a new documentary currently in theaters "Toni Morrison: The Pieces I Am." Filmmaker Timothy Greenfield-Sanders had known Morrison since the early 1980s when he began photographing her. In 2006, she gave him the inspiration to create the documentary trilogy "The Black List" in collaboration with Elvis Mitchell.
Pure Nonfiction host Thom Powers interviewed Greenfield-Sanders in May at the IFC Center. They discuss his long history with Morrison, his interview with Oprah and his collaborators on the project including interviewer Sandra Guzman.
