Indie Filmmaker. Oscar nominee. Writer, Director, Producer, Actor Richard Linklater (b. July 30, 1960) is all these things and more. Boasting a trove of never-before-seen Archival Footage, American Masters : Richard Linklater ““ dream is destiny provides an Unconventional Look at the fiercely Independent Style of Filmmaking that emerged out of Austin, Texas in the late 1980s and 1990s with Linklater as its Poster Boy. The New Documentary premieres Nationwide Friday, September 1 at 9 p.m. on PBS (check local listings). The Film will be available to stream the following day via pbs.org/americanmasters and PBS OTT apps.

Early Writings from Linklater's journals, telling Interviews shot at his Home and Cinéma Vérité Footage from the Set of Everybody Wants Some !! reveal his fearless approach and the extent to which his Filmmaking existed, and continues to exist, decidedly outside of the production power bases of Hollywood and New York. Clips from his most beloved Films, including Slacker, Dazed and Confused, the Before trilogy and Boyhood, and new Interviews with Actors and Collaborators Matthew McConaughey, Patricia Arquette, Ethan Hawke, Jack Black, Julie Delpy and Kevin Smith, as well as Colleagues and Friends, including Kent Jones, John Pierson and the late Jonathan Demme, demonstrate his collaborative Spirit and Process.

Co-directed by Karen Bernstein, 'American Masters : Richard Linklater ““ dream is destiny 'marks the Directorial Debut of The Austin Chronicle Editor and SXSW co-founder Louis Black. An Original Board Member of the Austin Film Society founded by Linklater, who still serves as its Artistic Director, Black has long been a staple in the Austin Filmmaking Community and the extent to which he is inseparable from his Subject is palpable throughout the Documentary, which had its World Premiere at the 2016 Sundance Film Festival.

Launched in 1986, American Masters has earned 28 Emmy Awards (including 10 for Outstanding Non-Fiction Series and five for Outstanding Non-Fiction Special) 12 Peabodys, an Oscar, three Grammys, two Producers Guild Awards and many other Honors. The Series' 31st Season on PBS features new Documentaries about Artist Tyrus Wong (September 8), Author Edgar Allan Poe (October 30) and Entertainer Bob Hope (December 29).
