Mark Emery Walk of Fame STORY+ PHOTOGRAPHY BY LEIGHTON OKUS | SOCIAL CORRESPONDANT
O
n Tuesday, November 9th, the community gathered at the Marion Theatre, to honor Mark Emery with a star on Ocala Film Foundation’s Walk of Fame. Mark’s contributions to the film industry and our community are simply outstanding. The evening (and the theatre) was filled with excitement and celebration- the walls were decked with Mark’s renowned photography, we enjoyed live music from Caly Bryan, tasty food and delicious drinks. After the unveiling of Mark’s bronze star, we had the privilege of viewing his documentary, “Out of the Mist: A Silver River Story.” Of all the places in the world that Mark Emery has traveled and captured on film, I love the story he tells of our Silver River and its rich history and vibrant wildlife, the most.
