In ‘Nuclear Family,’ Ry Russo-Young Directs Story Of Her Upbringing And Bitter Legal Battle That Ensnared Her Moms – Contenders TV: Docs + Unscripted

Russo-Young interviewed her moms for the series, and many other people involved in one way or another in the legal dispute. Her biological father, Tom Steel, died of AIDS in 1998.
“There were subjects that said to me, ‘I’ve been waiting for you to come find me for 30 years. What took you so long? I thought you were going to come when you were 18. Instead, you came
