Barry Levinson and Tom Fontana have one of the most creative and fruitful partnerships in the industry. Their groundbreaking collective vision has been responsible for such illustrious projects as Homicide: Life on the Street, Oz, Borgia, and You Don’t Know Jack. Their most recent collaboration, Copper for BBC America, journeys back to the Five Points neighborhood of New York in the turbulent 1860s. Levinson and Fontana will discuss their process of working together over the years, as well as preview their latest work that focuses on an Irish American cop searching for clues on the disappearance of his wife and the death of his daughter.
