A2: Davy Rothbart http://annarborchronicle.com/2013/12/09/a2-davy-rothbart/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=a2-davy-rothbart http://annarborchronicle.com/2013/12/09/a2-davy-rothbart/#comments Mon, 09 Dec 2013 18:15:04 +0000 Chronicle Staff http://annarborchronicle.com/?p=126378 Damn Arbor has published an interview with Davy Rothbart, creator of FOUND Magazine, about “Medora” – his new documentary focused on Medora, Indiana. Along with Andy Cohn, Rothbart is co-director and co-producer of the film, which follows the Medora Hornets varsity basketball team and the complexities of poverty and drug abuse in a small Midwestern town. From the interview, answering a query about Rothbart’s relationship with basketball: “I grew up in Ann Arbor and Ypsi and love playing basketball. We’d shovel off the court at Wheeler Park and play in the winter. We didn’t drink much in high school, so we played basketball. Eberwhite, Burns Park. We’d play at midnight or 4 a.m. We played constantly. We weren’t that good and couldn’t make the teams at Pioneer and Huron.” [Source]
