Filmmaker Steve Rogers, formerly of Manahawkin and a 1989 Southern Regional graduate, debuted his new docuseries for the NJPBS public television network, “Here’s The Story: Voices of the People,” on June 30.

Rogers’ journalism background – including a stint at The SandPaper in the ’90s – gave him interviewing and storytelling skills. The camera helped him gain a deeper view. Rogers now lives in Red Bank, and his love of the Garden State shines through in all his creative endeavors.
