Below are testimonials from industry professionals and academics:

" I have worked with Alison Hill in the tv and film trenches. Alison is the professor of excellent writing and impressive producing skills, talents, and accomplishments. She co-produced our award-winning Sand Creek Massacre documentary film. She listened to me as I described how I wanted her to be as a hostess on our tv show, "Haunted World." Without a script, she walks the viewer through a haunted house, giving out information, creating suspense, and entertaining the viewer. We have also worked together on a variety of tapings and shoots. Her brilliant journey in life with professionalism, perfection and know how are paralleled to me, and I've worked with some of the best. A consummate artist, writer, producer, host and interviewer. "

" My name is Susana Vela-Pryor and I am a Visiting Assistant professor in the department of Political Science at Metropolitan State College of Denver. I generally teach courses to mainly international students from all over the world as well as United States nationals. Since the fall 2004, Alison Hill has been part of the lecture series I have consistently organized in all of my classes, which consists in bringing speakers from all paths of life, religion, political and cultural views. I have had the pleasure of having Alison Hill consistently for various semesters since 2004 in three of the classes I have taught, specifically, American National Government, Global Citizenship and First Year Seminar (multicultural class). It did not matter whether her audiences consisted of a variety of multi-racial, multi-ethnic and multi-lingual students or not, Alison was always ready to address every single sensitive, political and multicultural issue while in the classroom as well as ready to answer the innumerable questions posed by the students. Alison shared her experiences and contributed greatly to the student knowledge with the following topics: Slavery in the 21st Century; Television and Media in the United States; the politics, the government and the current immigration issues of Wales. Alison Hill could be easily regarded as the most international, diverse and multicultural journalist anyone has ever encountered. Her enthusiasm, passion and willingness to always give it all in a classroom, has made her a unique and sophisticated journalist and producer. 2007-09-10 Susana Vela-Pryor , Denver,Colorado "

" I worked with Alison Hill for over four years, sharing my expertise on Middle East history and politics as a panelist on several prime time PBS discussion shows. I have worked with many very able professionals in TV shows over the years and Alison Hill is no doubt one of the best I worked with. She is very professional, extremely creative and attentive to details. Most importantly in my opinion is that she is able to accomplish always excellent results (time after time) with her great compassionate smiling personality which enabled panelists of high level specialist (dealing with extremely contentious charged issues) to feel comfortable, trusting and appreciated. Myself and my Colleagues who worked with Alison were always eager to participate in her projects - we always knew that we would be proud of the final public result which indeed always turned out correct.

" I worked with Alison for more than four years on Colorado Inside Out, a political and topical events roundtable produced by a PBS Denver affiliate. Alison produced the show and was a godsend. During a very reactionary time nationally and locally, Alison made sure that dissenting, progressive voices always had a seat at the table! She earned my respect again and again with her ability to remain calm under fire.
I am a former civil righs attorney who currently teaches undergraduate American legal history at the University of Colorado at Denver. I wrote a political blog for the DenverPost.com for more than three years - as a writer I'm in awe of Alison's discipline. I'll read that book! Go after it girl. "
