Philip Brubaker is a successful corporate videographer and art photographer, but his career path hasn't been easy. Philip struggles with mental illness, which has at times derailed his education and his career. One place where he found help and solace was the Brushes With Life gallery at UNC Hospital in Chapel Hill. In his new documentary film titled, "Brushes With Life," Philip profiles eight artists with mental illness whose work animates the gallery. Philip Brubaker and the film's producer, Dierdre Imershein Haj, join Frank Stasio to talk about the film. It will screen for the public on Thursday September 18th at the FedEx Global Education Center on the UNC campus at 5:30 p.m.
