Peggy Hayes

Peggy Hayes graduated from Spelman College in Atlanta, Georgia in 1986. She had an internship on the set of the television series “In the Heat of the Night� (1988). She founded the Night of the Black Independents which an organization which showcases films written and directed by persons of African decent.

Nandi (1998) was the only work of Hayes that I could find. In this film, Nandi is the name of a (fictional) women’s magazine that caters to African-American women. A freelance journalist, Frankie Reynolds, uses Nandi to expose harmful information about a major pharmaceutical company. This spreads the controversy of the company throughout the community.

I was not able to view this film nor find any other information related to it.

I found this work through the Sisters in Cinema link.

It was easy to find Hayes from the links provided by the blog, but I was unsatisfied when I could not find further information about Peggy Hayes and her movie, Nandi.
