Presented by TD in celebration of Black History Month, CFC (Canadian Film Centre) and Clement Virgo are pleased to present a special evening in conversation with iconic actress
Pam Grier. The evening will be hosted by Sharon Lewis.

For more than 40 years, starting out as cinema’s ‘first female action star’, Grier has been a trailblazer for strong women on-screen. From her early starring roles in hit blaxploitation films FOXY BROWN and COFFY, to Quentin Tarantino’s JACKIE BROWN, and the acclaimed Showtime series “The L Word”, she has captivated and engaged audiences with her character portrayals. The evening will explore her inspirations for entering the film business, the choices she has made as an actor, and the challenges she has faced along the way. Grier will also draw on her personal experiences to discuss the impact of being a role model both on and off the screen.

This event is part of TD's Then and Now series, an inspiring and
entertaining cultural showcase of one of Canada's prominent communities.  The lineup of events includes films, concerts, exhibitions, and performances by a host of Canadian and international artists.
