SaraConner.net

Producer, Writer, On-Air Talent and Documentarian. That's what it says on my card. What it doesn't say is I love telling stories, real ones that is. Everyone has their own story to tell. What I love most about my work is the people I meet and having the honor of sharing their story with the world. I tell stories through documentaries, on my award winning television show, and on this blog. I am particularly passionate about healthy eating and living, gardening and my family. "Life & Style with Sara." is my lifestyle program on West Hartford Community Television. "Cooks and Books" features celebrity chef interviews. Saraconner.net is an extension of the projects I work on. SARA CONNER PRODUCTIONS Looking for a producer?: watch samples of my work and learn how I can help you.

I love lilacs. Before I owned my first house, many moons ago, I dreamed of having lilacs in my garden. For some reason these used to be purple and this year are more white. Still smell amazing. #flowerpower #livingthedream

The Raising of America, a new PBS Documentary, aims to transform the way we look at early childhood health and development. During this live town hall event, hosted by Diane Smith, a panel of early childhood experts, studio audience members, and viewers discuss the issues raised in the documentary and how to ensure all of Connecticut’s children have the opportunity for a strong start and more equitable, prosperous future.

Panelists:

Myra Jones-Taylor, Commissioner of the Connecticut Office of Early Childhood

Irene Garneau, Instructional Coach at the Wintonbury Early Childhood Magnet School

Jessica Sagar, Director, All Our Kin, Inc.
