Close to Home: Scenes from a Recession

On New York City's affluent Upper East Side, "Frontline" producer Ofra Bikel explores how the country's ongoing recession is affecting the diverse array of people who pass through her local hair salon, from wealthy bankers to struggling actors. As Deborah Boles, the salon's owner, describes the obstacles to keeping her business afloat, her sister, Barbara, laments her own inability to pay the astronomical interest on her subprime mortgage.
