Wonderful interviews and discussions with American storyteller Ken Burns.

(How does Burns manage to remain so youthful through the years?!)

My lucky stars that I live in the same window of time that Ken Burns lives in and have been able to watch and enjoy his documentaries. All of them are simply a joy to watch. I could watch his Civil War / National Parks / Roosevelt’s documentaries over and over and enjoy them as much the last time watched as I did the first time.

Years ago at work I met him at a book lecture, he's great.
