Tennessee Tech Archives and Special Collections, in collaboration with WCTE and Director Scott Rabideau, invites students and the public to an exciting documentary screening that explores the story of Billie Dean Anderson of Fentress County, an Appalachian artist and one of the FBI’s most wanted men.
The event offers attendees the chance to interact with Billy Dean Anderson’s artwork and the film’s director and producer. It will also feature a panel including Scott Rabideau, President/CEO of WCTE, Avery Hutchins, and Historian Dr. Troy Smith. These experts will offer insight into the making of the film, local film-making, Middle Tennessee historical narratives, and the impact of Anderson’s life. Kay Wood’s “Billy Dean Anderson: A Criminal Life” will be available for purchase from the author.
