Celebrating an Inspiring Visit! We were honored to welcome Cheryl Boone Isaacs, the Founding Director of The Sidney Poitier New American Film School at Arizona State University, as she connected with our high school students at Ryan International Group of Institutions. Ms. Boone Isaacs’ passion for advancing diversity in film and her insights into the evolving landscape of the industry were invaluable. Cheryl Boone Isaacs is the Founding Director of Arizona State University’s Sidney Poitier New American Film School where she leads from the California Center as well as from Tempe and Mesa. She is a past president of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences who, during her 24 years as a board member, held every officer position and served as President of the Academy Foundation. Her visit not only broadened our students’ horizons but also inspired them to dream big in their creative pursuits. Thank you, Ms. Boone Isaacs, for sharing your knowledge, wisdom, and encouragement with the next generation of storytellers! Dr Snehal Pinto Sonal Pinto Yi-Chun Sunny K.
