Behind the Wheel of the Bookmobile is a multi-media and documentary film project by Tom Corwin that follows a classic bookmobile across country on back roads with acclaimed authors taking turns at the wheel.  At each stop the bookmobile’s doors will open inviting the public in to take their choice of digital and analog titles in exchange for interviews about books that have changed their lives.

The highlights of the journey will be distributed in a multimedia literacy outreach campaign, while the road trip culminates in a documentary film.

“Books influence our lives in ways too often untold,” says Corwin.  “Our trip is designed to tell some of those stories while our back roads route connects the project to America’s literary history.”
