Episode description

What does it take to write the great American novel?
Harper Lee’s defining work - To Kill a Mockingbird - has stood the test of time. 
Surrounded by racism, segregation and injustice growing up in rural Alabama, Lee’s experiences shaped what would go on to become a literary classic. 
Stephanie Okupniak goes inside her life - and friendship with Truman Capote - with the help of biographer Charles Shields and author Greg Neri.
