Featuring Florida: The Sunshine State in Fiction, Film and TV   

Explore Florida in a whole new way: through the lens of popular culture, with this deep dive into TV, movies, and fiction set in the Sunshine State. From "Dexter" to "Key Largo" and "The Yearling," rediscover—or encounter for the first time—important works, and learn surprising facts, like which product sales soared thanks to "Miami Vice," or the original casting choices for "Bad Boys." You'll enjoy revisiting iconic shows and books, like "I Dream of Jeannie," as well as modern masterpieces like "Moonlight." Based on lecturer Caren Schnur Neile's latest book: "Featuring Florida."
