For generations, New York City's Garment District provided more than just jobs - it was the lifeblood of the city. But in recent years, with the increased globalization of clothing manufacturing, this once-thriving district has continued to shrink. Reflecting the economic and social forces that have transformed the nation over the past century, the exclusive HBO documentary SCHMATTA: RAGS TO RICHES TO RAGS tells the story of this vanishing, once vibrant, industry through the voices of the people who experienced its highs and lows when it debuts MONDAY, OCT. 19 (9:00-10:30 p.m.).
