In conjunction with Heritage Days, Mayo Clinic will host red-carpet premiere showings of a new documentary film, “My Brother and I / The Founding of Mayo Clinic.” Narrated by Minnesota’s own Garrison Keillor, “My Brother and I” tells the story of Dr. Will Mayo and Dr. Charlie Mayo, their lives and values, and how their vision continues to inspire Mayo Clinic today.
Here is the trailer:
The public is invited to the red-carpet showing of the 35-minute film at 7 p.m. on Tuesday, Sept, 30, in Phillips Hall of the Siebens Building, 100 Second Ave. S.W. The event is free, with seats available on a first-come basis. No reservations are necessary. Free parking is available in city ramps. Street parking near the Siebens Building is limited.
The public is welcome to participate in the week’s festivities. Information is posted on the Heritage Days Web page.
The full DVD will be available for purchase through Mayo-affiliated gift shops beginning Oct. 6. Journalists desiring a review copy may request one by contacting Barbara Sorensen.
