"Where is Wendy Williams?" - Exploring the Complexities of Her Life and Struggles

In 2022, Mark Ford and Erica Hanson, the executive producers of the revealing new docuseries, “Where is Wendy Williams” (now available on Lifetime), set out to chronicle the return of one of daytime’s loudest and most popular voices. What they found was a lonely woman in crisis despite being placed under guardianship by New York State. Ford and Hanson discuss remaining nimble in their approach to documenting Wendy Williams’ struggle with alcoholism and her descent into dementia; being stonewalled by the system allegedly in place to protect her; earning the trust of the Williams family, and filmmaking as a form of health advocacy.
