CBS News correspondent Steve Hartman, an Eagle Scout, has earned national recognition as the project he helped bring to life, “All the Empty Rooms,” won the Academy Award for Best Documentary Short.
The film offers a powerful and intimate portrayal of children lost to school shootings by focusing on the bedrooms they never returned to. Through these deeply personal spaces, the documentary gives grieving families a voice and underscores the human impact behind the headlines.
Hartman’s compassion and commitment to telling meaningful stories made him a trusted and effective guide for this emotional and important project.
