Betsy and Joe began their careers at WQED where Joe filmed award-winning documentaries for National Geographic and later for WGBH’s Nova programs. He worked on hundreds of WQED programs while making documentaries with his wife Elizabeth. \n\nElizabeth appeared on Mr. Rogers Neighborhood as Mrs. McFeeley and wrote scripts for three decades along with educational efforts dealing with challenges for children. They share with Jim Cunningham memories of the work including \"Picture Picture\" segments for the Neighborhood and describe their philosophy; how they chose the movies that film lovers will see; and then can participate in questions and answers. The documentaries are: \"An Alternate Reality\" from 2026 about Bill Boichel and \"Copacetic Comics;\" \"The Journey is This\" about Artist of the Year Tim Kaulen; \"You’ve Got to Take Pride in What you Do\" about Jeff James, a mule trainer and logger in Middle Tennessee; and their earliest work \"Conversations in Rhyme\" about children’s folk traditions from Pittsburgh. \n\nhttps://trustarts.org/production/105707/betsy-and-joe-seamans-abide-in-this-place-for-a-while"}
