A
documentary filmmaker's movie about growing up with a schizophrenic
mother (10/15/05)
Even as a child, Susan Smiley knew her mother was different. Her
life was an unending roller coaster of unpredictability, suicide
attempts, betrayal, neglect, fear and shame. Because of the shame,
Smiley kept the whole thing a secret. Growing up, she became a documentary
filmmaker and created "Out of the Shadow", an award-winning
documentary about her mother Millie's battle with schizophrenia
in a disorganized health care system.
