Lucy Liu Is Developing UNSUNG HEROES to Showcase Women Pioneers

Unsung Heroes is a new anthology series being developed by Lucy Liu, ABC Studios International, and Ruthanne Secunda Productions. The series will aim to tell the untold stories of women who became pioneers by overcoming adversity with the first hero to be Anna May Wong.

“Unsung Heroes is about the untold stories of incredible women who overcame adversity to become pioneers of their time. It will profile women who were highly accomplished in their fields, but did not receive the acknowledgment for their achievements and how their stories have impacted history. The first hero to be profiled is the Asian American female silent screen star of film and theatre, Anna May Wong.”

This actually sounds like it could be really cool. If you’re interested in Unsung Heroes, you may want to check out the podcast Forgotten Women of Genre.
