Warm. Giving, Caring. Compassionate. Those are just some of the adjectives used to describe MaryAnn Black from people who knew and worked with her.
“MaryAnn” premieres on WRAL-TV in Raleigh and WILM-TV in Wilmington on Wednesday, January 13 at 7:30 p.m. and on WRAZ Fox 50 on Saturday, Jan. 16 at 5 p.m.
Black was a career social worker in Durham who served on the county Board of Commissioners, worked as the associate vice president of community relations at Duke University Health System and served in the North Carolina House of Representatives. The impact of her work ripples through the Durham community and our state, especially in the areas of health care and education. Black died of cancer in March but her legacy lives on in the thousands of lives touched by her work.
The new WRAL Documentary “MaryAnn” examines the life and work of Black and the positive impact they have had on so many others. That story is told through interviews with people touched by Black’s work, people she worked with and her surviving family members. WRAL News anchor and reporter Lena Tillett hosts the half-hour documentary “MaryAnn.”
