At last spring's Annual Gala, Samantha Weisman bid and won a live auction item to spend a day on set with film director and honoree Malcolm Lee. Samantha had an amazing experience when Malcolm recently flew her down to Atlanta to spend time on the set of his new comedy, Night School , starring Kevin Hart.
"Being on set with Malcolm was a wonderful, fun, and rewarding experience. Malcolm answered all of my questions, introduced me to his talented cast and crew, and made me feel welcome and comfortable. We were on set until 2am, and it was a blast watching Malcolm and the actors improvise with each other and film hilarious scenes. I am so grateful for the opportunity, and even happier that I was able to donate to such an important cause."
Congratulations to Samantha and many thanks to Malcolm!
