Lorie Conway is an author and independent producer for Boston Film & Video Productions, a company she founded in 2000. Forgotten Ellis Island, Conway's film and book about the immigrant hospital on Ellis is narrated by Elliott Gould, and is the recipient of three National Endowment for the Humanities grants; it is the first book and film to be produced about the Ellis Island hospital. For two years, the National Park Service gave exclusive access to Ms. Conway's production company to film the massive, 22 building medical complex adjacent to Ellis Island. The film is broadcast on PBS, screens on Amazon, and is shown in Ellis Island's Great Hall Museum.
