About the film:
The documentary was funded by The Garden Club of New Haven, Inc. and the Committee of the Proprietors of the Common and Undivided Lands in New Haven. It was written, directed, and produced by Emmy Award-winning filmmaker Karyl Evans and narrated by New Haven native and award-winning actor Paul Giamatti. The film reveals fascinating historical narratives and little known facts about the Green. A treasure of rarely seen archival photographs, paintings, and hand-colored engravings, along with interviews and an original score bring the history of the New Haven Green to life.
In 2013, Karyl Evans received three Emmy nominations for the film from the National Academy of Television Arts and Sciences-- for best writer, best director, and producer of the film.
The film was also nominated for the Linsley Award, recognizing the best work on a significant aspect of Connecticut history, from the Association for the Study of Connecticut History by Judith Schiff, New Haven’s City Historian and Senior Archivist at Yale University’s Manuscripts and Archives.
