Cafeteria Man is a documentary about the folks who are working to transform Baltimore's public school food system. The film focuses on New Orleans-born chef Tony Geraci over the course of two years as he attempts to introduce fresh, healthy, local food to school cafeterias, highlighting the positive possibilities of activism and collaboration to change the way the city's schoolchildren eat. After a screening of the film, Yale School of Public Health Professor Jeannette Ickovics, lead curator of the Peabody’s Big Food exhibition, will interview Tim Cipriano, Executive Director of Food Services for New Haven Public Schools (or as he calls himself, The Local Food Dude) about the work he's done in New Haven to reform school lunches.
