In this episode, host Noah Asher interviews Clarence Maclin, the first formerly incarcerated person nominated for an Oscar. Clarence shares his journey from spending 17 and a half years in Sing Sing prison to becoming an award-winning actor and advocate for rehabilitation through the arts. He discusses the transformative power of theater, the importance of getting involved in programs while incarcerated, and the challenges he faced after reentry.
