This interview with Liverpool Institute of Performing Arts founder, Mark Featherstone-Witty (other co-founders, Sir Paul McCartney and Sir George Martin) highlights some of Mark's experiences that inspired his book, "Optimistic Even Then." After watching the 1980s film FAME, a chronicle of the lives of several teenagers who attend a New York highschool for students gifted in performing arts, Mark knew what he wanted to do and sought out FAME director, Alan Parker, to find out how to achieve his vision. Listen to Marks Featherstone-Witty inspiring story. (Please note that this recording has some sound issues due to the static on the England telephone line)
