Our featured guest, Jim Tusty is an independent filmmaker, speaker, and entrepreneur. He founded Mountain View Group, Ltd. in 1981, and built it into a high-level filmmaking and communications consulting firm that serviced some of the largest companies in the world, including GE, Coca-Cola, and The Home Depot. Jim sold his company in 2008. He and his wife Maureen released their first feature film, The Singing Revolution, in 2008, which chronicles the peaceful revolt of the Estonian people against the USSR in the early ‘90’s. I was very moved by the film’s TV version which will air nationally next month. Im sure you will enjoy this interview with Jim Tusty.
