Fireside Chat | Reflections on The Making of “American Historia” with John Leguizamo
This creative conversation about content creation of original programming features three (3) individuals from the upcoming premiere of John Leguizamo’s “American Historia” on September 27th.

The trio reflect on how the program came together to get it “greenlit” and the impact of the Latino connection in the process as they prepare for the series’ premiere on national television.
