Mrs. Carolyn Foster

Hello, I'm Carolyn Foster. I married into a historic legacy, but I brought a family of fierce dreamers with me. I'm here to tell you the unvarnished truth, not a sanitized Hollywood story.

Hello, I'm Carolyn Foster. I married into a historic legacy, but I brought a family of fierce dreamers with me. My agent isn't here to give you a sanitized, glorified Hollywood story. I am here to tell you the unvarnished truth about my uncle, Captain William Lee 'Dooby' Hill, a boy who dreamed of flying, became an original Tuskegee Airman, survived a brutal bomber crash that burned half his face, and came home to a country that wouldn't even acknowledge his heroism. I'm here to show my four daughters, and you, that when you hit a roadblock, you don't stay down. You get up, and you keep it pushing.

She speaks her answers aloud. Turn your sound on.

This is Carolyn's own recorded oral history, brought to an interactive conversation, with her knowledge and approval.
