About this Event
Affectionately known among their peers as Fox and Rob, Sibil Fox and Robert Richardson are a couple who endured twenty-one years as an incarcerated family.
In 1997, Rob Rich, a first offender in Louisiana, was sentenced to 61-years as a result of overzealous prosecution. Not to be denied, after her release from Pr*son in 2002, Fox Rich led a valiant charge to regain her husband’s freedom. In June 2018 Governor John Bel Edwards granted clemency to Rob. Ninety days later he was released. Their story is told in the acclaimed, award-winning documentary Time. They have also written a book together about their experience.
Fox and Rob will screen Time, followed by a conversation with the audience. They will also sign copies of their book, Time: The Untold Story of the Love That Held Us Together When Incarceration Kept Us Apart.
Free and open to the public; donations gratefully accepted. Donations support One Book One New Orleans' year-round work.
