741: Pete Chatmon, Producer, Director, Writer "Blackish"

We’re in conversation with Pete Chatmon. Pete started making films in high school and through a lot of hustle and persistence, he raised half $1 million for his first film, hit a thousand dollars of his own money in the bank at the time. Since then he's gone on to direct well-known shows, including Blackish. Pete and I talked about how he got his start in the film industry, how he keeps his integrity in an industry that is full of compromise, the grit required to make it in the industry and the financial realities of launching films.  For more, check out www.somoneypodcast.comLearn more about Farnoosh's upcoming literary workshop Book to Brand.
