Argo, who has won six Emmy awards for previous documentaries, including Chimpanzees: an Unnatural History and The Urban Elephant, is the narrator, producer, and writer of Crash.
Argo graduated from Wheeler in 1971. In addition to the free screening tomorrow night, she will be speaking to students throughout the day Wednesday.
