The Screen Actors Guild (SAG) Foundation Legacy Documentation Program is the product of the Foundation's ongoing efforts to preserve and illuminate the history of the Guild, Hollywood, and the labor movement by funding the production of documentary interviews with long-time Guild members.
Through its ActorSpeak program, SAG provides a forum for Guild members to relate their shared experiences in the entertainment industry with a diverse public audience in an effort to inspire and inform future generations of performers.
Conversations is the live audience, in-house version of the Foundation's ActorSpeak Legacy Program that features high-profile SAG members recorded in discussions, often with other Guild members, in a variety of locations around the United States. Dozens of interviews have been completed to date, including discussions with Jack Lemmon, James Garner, Marsha Hunt, Patty Duke, Charlton Heston, Henry Fonda, Rod Steiger, Ernest Borgnine, Phyllis Diller and Ed Asner.
The living documents created by the Legacy Program offer an unparalleled window into the early struggles and successes of the Guild, as seen through the eyes of the actors and other industry professionals who have contributed to the Guild's history.
