HBO, The Shriver Report, and the Center for American Progress cordially invite you and a guest to an exclusive premiere screening of the HBO documentary film Paycheck to Paycheck: The Life and Times of Katrina Gilbert, executive produced by Maria Shriver and Sheila Nevins.

This is the story of our time – how 42 million American women and the 28 million children who depend on them are living in poverty or on the brink of it. From Maria Shriver’s multi-platform “The Shriver Report: A Woman’s Nation Pushes Back From The Brink” comes a film that offers a deeply personal, unvarnished and moving story of the life of Katrina Gilbert, a single mom, struggling to get ahead but constantly getting knocked back by a system that almost seems designed to see her fail. Directed by Shari Cookson and Nick Doob.
