KARTEMQUIN WAY
Linda Zabors
Kartemquin is a documentary film production house started in Chicago in 1966 with their first production "Home for Life."
The honorary sign was dedicated to mark the 50th anniversary of the company and the remarkable body of work KTQ has produced.
The name KARTEMQUIN is a combination of the last names of the three founders: Stan Karter, Jerry Temaner and Gordon Quinn; and a play on the name of a 1925 film "The Battleship Potemkin."
