Camera operator Peter Roof continues to enjoy working on the Miller Center of Public Affairs National Discussion and Debate Series. This is the third season for the series and for Roof.

The series was created to encourage a vigorous, well-informed discussion on the national stage about the major issues of our time. MacNeil Lehrer Productions covers these events with five cameras on a set "in the round." A production of this scale has its usual challenges but some locations have necessitated special procedures. At the Library of Congress the entire setup was restored within an hour after the library was closed to the public. The programs are now shot in HD and webcast live and broadcast on PBS stations a few days later.
