Hot on the heels of last season's award-winning premiere of Voices From the Midwest comes the second installment of our groundbreaking series! As we begin the 21st Century, men's roles in business, family and social environments have evolved. This piece, built around submissions from men all over this part of our country, will explore the stories, journeys and lives of men from the Midwestern United States and ask the question: "What is it to be a man in the 21st Century Midwest?" Featuring Tobin Hissong, John Lepard and Scott Norman. Directed by John Seibert.
