The St. Louis Public Library is proud to welcome St. Louis native and media personality Joe "Mama" Mason as the guest speaker at the final Spring 2014 installment of its series, TV Talk: The Book Club for TV People.

The segments were shot with a 4K digital cinema camera owned by Mason's production company, Illustrated Man.
Joe Mason's directing credits include programs that have aired on ABC Family, Animal Planet, CNN, Discovery, Discovery Health, the Travel Channel, Turner, and VH-1.
