For years, Robin Roberts has helped tell some of the world’s most important stories. Now she’s helping bring another one to life.
Roberts is producing Lifetime’s upcoming film Angel in the Rubble, the true story of Genelle Guzman-McMillan, the last survivor rescued from Ground Zero after 9/11, starring Sherri Shepered and Dondre Whitfield.
What caught our attention isn’t just the film itself. It’s what it represents.
It’s that more women, especially women of color, are moving beyond being the face of the story and becoming the people who decide which stories get told. They’re stepping into roles as producers, creators, executives, and media owners; shaping culture from behind the scenes. That’s the kind of legacy that lasts.
