Harriet has created and produced three Off Broadway plays in tribute to her grandfather’s stage and film careers – Celebration of Comic Genius W.C. Fields at the National Arts Club\, Gramercy Park\, New York City (2018) with panelists Dick Cavett\, Prof. Rob King of Columbia University Film Department\, and herself; Centennial Celebration of W.C. Fields at the New Amsterdam (2015) on the 100th Anniversary of W.C. Fields starring on Broadway in the Ziegfeld Follies at the New Amsterdam Theatre; The Real Transcript of W.C. Fields Murder Trial (of a Canary)\, 1928 (2015) about a little known incident in Broadway history. Harriet is currently working on the second iteration to bring to Off Broadway\, hopefully later this year. \nDr. Fields is a global health advocate in rural villages in Rwanda empowering women as leaders in health in their communities. While in Rwanda\, Harriet also screens her grandfather’s films at the Kwetu Film Institute in Kigali with profound international insights into how W.C. Fields speaks to the universal human condition. Kwetu is part of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences International Outreach Program and is witness to the Timelessness of W.C. Fields Art and Humor. \nIn November 2019\, Harriet and Rob presented the W.C. Fields Tribute at the Annual Meeting of SPERDVAC.
