News


I can't wait for this. Ken Burns tackles my favorite historical event, WWII. Coming to PBS in November.

THE WAR, a seven-part (14 hour) series directed and produced by Ken Burns and Lynn Novick, tells the story of the Second World War through the personal accounts of a handful of men and women from four quintessentially American towns. The series explores the most intimate human dimensions of the greatest cataclysm in history — a worldwide catastrophe that touched the lives of every family on every street in every town in America — and demonstrates that in extraordinary times, there are no ordinary lives. http://www.pbs.org/thewar/
