LICF Donor and Emeritus Advisory Bd. Member Horace Hagedorn's Life in Film

August 10, 2004

LICF donor and emeritus LICF Advisory Board member Horace Hagedorn is celebrating his 90th year with the world premiere of a documentary about his extraordinary life as a Long Island leader, garden industry legend, marketing genius, and generous philanthropist. Much of Mr. Hagedorn's charitable giving is through funds he established at the LICF. The feature "Meet Mr. Miracle-Gro" was produced by three-time Emmy winner Ron Rudaitis (whose production company was awarded an LICF grant in 2002 to produce a film about the history of Long Island farming). The world premiere was Tuesday, August 10th at Hofstra University. The premiere was a benefit for Sustainable Long Island, another LICF grantee.
