Harry Belafonte Interview 1976 (Part 2 of 2) Brian Linehan's City Lights

In this interview from 1976, Harry Belafonte talks about his early life and career: growing up in New York City and Jamaica, serving in World War II and talking drama classes on the GI Bill, performing in jazz clubs in Midtown Manhattan, meeting Sidney Poitier at the American Negro Theater and choosing early projects that "had nothing to do with art" and were made "for social and political reasons," and making choices for art as he got older and more established as a performer and producer. He also talks about the difference between playing in Sudbury, Ontario and Las Vegas, Nevada, social activism and lending his name to social causes, his relationships with Martin Luther King Jr and John F Kennedy Jr, working with the civil rights movement and the White House to help the two better understand each other, and his current involvement with the civil rights of the Native American Indians in the United States. From 1974 to 2000, Canada’s Brian Linehan conducted thousands of in-depth interviews with the greatest actors and directors from over 60 years of film history. His programs City Lights and Linehan have not been seen since they first aired and are now available for the first time for licensing. Linehan, a stylishly gifted broadcaster, meticulously did all his own research and that, coupled with his knowledge and passion about film and filmmaking, puts him in a class all by himself.

In the decade since his death, recipients of the Foundation’s support have included extraordinary young actors affiliated with the Canadian Film Centre, The National Screen Institute of Canada, the Stratford Shakespearean Festival and the Toronto International Film Festival, which, since Brian's passing, has preserved and housed Brian's personal archive and tape library.
