Iree Bowling, the Perry County matriarch who appeared in the 1999 HBO movie, American Hollow, died in 2010 at her home on Mudlick Road near the community of Saul in Perry County, where she lived for almost her entire life. Her husband, Bascum Bowling, passed away several years prior.

There is a Facebook fan page dedicated to the Bowlings, where actual family members contribute to some of the posts on the page.

Haiden Bowling, Clint Bowling's son, posted the following response when asked how everyone is doing:

Oh, nothing really, just living it peacefully. We're still at the same place we've always been, lol. And Clint, my dad, is just chilling with me, his SON ;3

Polly and Lanzo Bowling's family seems to be doing great as well, according to this video uploaded on YouTube.

Created by filmmaker Rory Kennedy, the documentary American Hollow, which is complemented by a book and photo exhibit, chronicles one year in the life of a family deeply rooted in a remote area called Mudlick Hollow in Eastern Kentucky.
