Louisiana Production Fund

There’s no place quite like Louisiana. The food, music, scenery, cultures, and traditions are just a few of the things that make our state such a treasure, not only to those of us lucky enough to call it home, but to the world. That’s why sharing the story of Louisiana is so important to LPB.

Over the past four decades, LPB has connected the citizens of Louisiana by producing programs and documentaries that showcase our unique history, people, places and events. Programs like LA64, Why Louisiana Ain't Mississippi... or Any Place Else!, Capturing America: The Carol Highsmith Story, and Circles: The Life of Billy Cannon are some of our most recent programs. To ensure LPB’s continued legacy as Louisiana’s Storyteller, Friends of LPB developed the Louisiana Production Fund as a way to ensure that many more programs like these will be possible for generations to come.

Productions Underway

LPB has so much more to share! Along with weekly programs like Louisiana: The State We’re In and Art Rocks! The Series, LPB has some exciting documentaries coming this Fall, that cover topics as diverse as the state itself!

  • Circles: The Life of Billy Cannon - This documentary is the saga of his fame, his fall and his redemption, made possible by a forgiving LSU fan base and, ironically, a job reshaping lives and health care at Angola, Louisiana's maximum-security penitentiary.
  • Capturing America: The Carol Highsmith Story - For more than 40 years, Carol Highsmith wakes up every single day with one mission: to document every nook and cranny of the United States, from its majestic mountains and quirky roadside attractions to its most unforgettable characters, known and unknown.
