Joining me today is Raven Harris, a phenomenal TV production teacher who at the time of this interview was wrapping up her 3rd year of teaching. Raised in Pine Bluff, Arkansas, Raven reflects on the impact that her family—grandparents, mother, son—had on who she has become in and beyond the classroom.
