Lisa established a needed &#8220;creative space&#8221; for artists of color to share their work on an international level. This is no easy task to do and to sustain. The MALC Steering Committee knew how highly Liora Beer thought of Lisa and her work. Liora was a big fan of the Roxbury International Film Festival.<\/p>\n<p>Like Liora, Lisa saw a need and filled it and often at the expense of her own creative studio time. MALC wants to shine the spotlight on Lisa for all the good she has done and will continue do for the film and performing arts community and beyond. MALC is honored to give Lisa this award in Liora&#8217;s memory. We think Liora would be so pleased that we are honoring her.<\/p>\n<h4>Profile: <strong>Lisa Simmons<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>Lisa Simmons is the Director and Curator of the Roxbury International Film Festival (RoxFilm), now in its 22nd year, and Founder of the Color of Film Collaborative, whose mission it is to support filmmakers, and present films and film programs that celebrate people of color around the world.
