David Solomon, WQED Emmy winner speaking on: Finding Elizabeth’s Soldiers

This follow-up to “Portraits for the Home Front: The Story of Elizabeth Black” takes the saga of Pittsburgh artist Elizabth Black to a compelling new level. The 30-minute Emmy® Award-winning documentary focuses on producer David Solomon’s efforts to find homes for dozens of soldier portraits sketched on World War II battlefields.

With the help of volunteer researchers and amateur genealogists, WQED is able to reunite the beautiful portraits with amazed and appreciative families in Pittsburgh and across the U.S.
