I had the honor & pleasure of interviewing Lee Storey. I have interviewed hundreds of people in my career. Lee has ranked in the Top 3 Best.
ReplyDeleteLee shares this list with Doris Roberts and Richard Schiff.
Due to the interview, I have looked through SMTI website and watched the other videos. I am blessed knowing in the type of personality that helped make convince me to interview her exceeded my expectations. Lee is both, Intelligent & Captivating. I am sure that those qualities will help this documentary become very successful.
I'll be watching the progress.
