The Vilcek Foundation gave LOST fans grieving the end of their favorite television program a behind-the-scenes view of the diverse cast and crew, along with many of the iconic props from the show. By focusing on the images and backgrounds of 20 immigrant and first-generation contributors to the wildly popular television show, the Foundation also advanced its primary mission: to heighten awareness of foreign-born contributions to American culture. LOST’s executive producer Carlton Cuse, writer Melinda Hsu Taylor, actor Jorge Garcia (“Hurley”), and cinematographer John Bartley, were among the featured artists.
