GLAAD Joins Rosie O’Donnell to Premiere HBO Documentary ‘A Family is a Family is a Family’

GLAAD joined Rosie O’Donnell on Tuesday evening to premiere her upcoming HBO documentary, A Family is a Family is a Family: A Rosie O’Donnell Celebration.

In HBO’s moving documentary, kids offer touching, profound and often funny insights about what being a family means to them. While answers vary, all family’s share one vital ingredient: love.

Challenging stereotypes, the film creates a portrait of the modern American family in all its wonderful diversity. Among those featured are: children with two fathers or two mothers; a girl whose mother and father adopted her in China; three brothers who live with their mother and grandmother; a pair of mothers who are getting married to make one big family; and families with adopted kids and children born through in-vitro fertilization.

A Family is a Family is a Family is directed and produced by Amy Schatz, whose credits include such award-winning HBO family productions as the “Classical Baby” series and the special “Goodnight Moon & Other Sleepytime Tales.”

The film makes its television debut Sunday, January 31 at 7PM/ 6 Central on HBO.
