NBC5 Chicago Premier – October, 2006

Nobody Told Me

Produced by the DePaul Documentary Project

Original Score: Mark Leonard

“In 1997 less than 10% of Manley Career Academy’s graduating class went to college. In 2003 the struggling high school on Chicago’s poverty-scarred west side sent over 70% of its graduating seniors to colleges and universities around the country. Lila’s Hope is the story of the women who made this success a reality, Lila Leff. We joined her, Manley’s faculty and its students for an academic year, sharing in their hopes, dreams, successes and failures.” (http://marincorpproductions.com)
