Growing up, Blue's mother Mollie Carroll Parrott, worked with and for organizations such as Negro YWCA, Garden Club, Texas Negro Democratic party, and many church groups to name a few that fought for civil rights during the Civil Rights Era.[3] EducationBlue received her Bachelors of Arts majoring in English Literature during her time at Boston University (1960-1964).[4] She earned her Master in Fine Arts at the University of California, Los Angeles (1976-1980).[4] CareerCarroll Parrott Blue's documentary works have focused on women of the African Diaspora and visual arts themes.[2] Blue's multimedia participatory projects developed out of her documentary work. Her autobiographical "The Dawn at my Back", a work that combines film, text and hypermedia form, gave rise to "The Dawn Project" and "Third Ward Storymapping".[5] Her work is heavily concentrated in documentaries, African American Cinema and digital community-based media.[4] However, Blue did get involved in television. Blue’s television programs includeVarnette’s World: A Study of a Young Artist (1979), Smithsonian World (“Nigerian Arts-Kindred Spirits,” 1996) and NOVA (“Mystery of the Senses: Vision,” 2007).[6] Blue was part of the L.A. Rebellion filmmaking movement(1967-1989), alongside Julie Dash, Charles Burnett, Jamaa Fanaka, Haile Gerima, Billy Woodberry, Barbara McCullough, Ben Caldwell, Alile Sharon Larkin, and Larry Clark.[7] The L.A. Rebellion filmmakers worked against Hollywood's negative perspective of black people in starring realistic, anti-stereotype characters in their works. Filming African Americans in their communities was an important aspect of this work, as Zeinabu Irene Davis stated in 2014 the "goal was and is to represent, reflect on, and enrich the day-to-day lives of people in our own communities."[8] Blue's documentary Conversations with Roy DeCarava (1983) is a highly respected piece in the Los Angeles School. This documentary looks at DeCarava's work and life in Harlem.[7] The Dawn at My Back: A Memoir of a Black Texas Upbringing, (2003) is a book, DVD-ROM and website.[9] It explores Blue's family history and the history of Houston's black community.[9] It won the Sundance Online Film Festival Jury Award in 2004 and was also named one of the 30 best American Association of University Press publications by the American Library Association in that year.[1][10]Blue was passionate about transforming Houston and founded SEHTA: Southeast Houston Transformation Alliance.[11] From 2006 through 2015, Blue was a research professor at the University of Houston.[12] While at the University of Houston, she applied for a National Endowment for the Arts "Our Town" grant application to encourage people in the art and architecture field to improve the community.[11] She was awarded $100,000 for this pursuit.[12] In Blue's pursuit of making change in the Southeast Houston area, her work consisted of storytelling, interactive multimedia, public art and design.[11] SEHTA tells the community's story by capturing the voices from the community while merging the objective facts of this community to reach her audience of academics, developers and donors.[11] Awards"The Dawn at My Back: Memoir of a Texas Upbringing" won the 2004 Sundance Online Film Festival Viewers Award in the New Forms Gallery category.[13] She was appointed a World Academy of Art and Science Fellow in 2007.[6] Selected filmographyCarroll Parrott Blue has produced, directed and written films including those listed in the table below:[14]
