Julia Vinograd: Between Spirit and Stone 

In progress
 
Iconic Berkeley street poet Julia Vinograd emerges from the 1960’s Free Speech Movement fighting state oppression with bubbles instead of bricks. Eccentric and indomitable, often subsisting on one meal a day, the "Bubble Lady of Telegraph Avenue" pushes through poverty and polio to produce more than 70 volumes of poetry, winning an American Book Award, a Pushcart Prize, and Berkeley's first Lifetime Achievement Award. A lifelong champion of marginalized people and an enduring symbol of nonviolent resistance through art, Vinograd's untold story is presented through the vivid historical prisms of Berkeley's People's Park movement, the 1980's post-Beat Bay Area literary scene, and her witty, incisive, deeply humane poetry.  www.betweenspiritandstonethefilm.com
