Morgan Freeman

Academy Award-nominee Morgan Freeman narrates A TALE OF TWO SCHOOLS, a compelling one-hour documentary on what it takes to teach a child to read. The topic is familiar ground to Freeman, who made his acting debut in the 1970s hit PBS children's series, "The Electric Company." As the series' hip character "Easy Reader," Freeman was one of the original cast members of the show that used innovative techniques to help slower readers improve and good readers to get even better.
