Forgotten Ellis Island PBS broadcast

Forgotten Ellis Island, the first film to be produced about the immigrant hospital on Ellis Island, will be shown on PBS 2/2 at 10PM ET. Check local listings for other times and dates.

The film was honored with an award of appreciation at the 2008 IVOH fall conference.

As Pres. Obama begins his first term and immigration continues to be a hot topic of debate, Forgotten Ellis Island reminds us how we became the diverse nation that we are today. It is a powerful tribute to the best and worst of America's dealings with new citizens to-be. www.forgottenellisisland.com
