When he moved to New York in 1982, Fenton Bailey saw the world go Pop. Together with filmmaking partner Randy Barbato, their production company World of Wonder helped pioneer the genre of reality TV. Working with icons such as Britney Spears, Tammy Faye Bakker and RuPaul, the Emmy-winning media company's shows tell a wider story of how television has fundamentally shifted our reality. Now, WOW Founder and author Bailey will discuss the insider stories and behind-the-scenes tales of making some of TV’s most iconic shows. A book signing will follow.
