The cathedral in San Antonio, Texas displays a remarkable light show every night. People gather to watch it and they have for years. Tourists and locals alike are drawn to the spectacle of the history of San Antonio done in rich, overlapping moving images and the music that accompanies it. Xavier De Richemont created it and wants to bring one of this light shows to Mobile to display it on the Mobile History Museum as a fixed installment. He's done his light shows across the world and was in Mobile over Mardi Gras, always with his camera, capturing the city.
Xavier and I sat down while he was in town to discuss how he creates the images, what he's lerned about the proud cities that want to showcase his art, and what he saw when he was in Mobile.
What's Working is Sponsored by the Poarch Creek Indians.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
