Two University of Southern Indiana faculty members in the College of Liberal Arts produced a documentary, Art for Science’s Sake: Stalking John James Audubon, that will be featured at the Victory International Film Festival September 7-9.  

Dr. Leigh Anne Howard, Communication and Media Department Chair and Professor of Communication Studies, and Dr. David Black, Associate Professor Emeritus of Radio and Television, produced the one-hour documentary which explores the art and science of 19th century naturalist John James Audubon. 

Their documentary has also been nominated for Best Documentary and Best Hoosier-made Film. Each category has first place prizes of $500.  

Additionally, a portion of the proceeds from the Festival will go to supporting projects at the historic Victory Theatre at the corner of NW 6th and Main streets in Evansville.
