Ken Burns: Here & There

Ken Burns – Here & There is a rare look at the over four-decade intimate relationship Ken Burns has with his America and his beloved community of Walpole. And how this tiny town's influence looms large in the life of this legendary filmmaker.

Ken Burns has revolutionized how Americans both get and understand their own history by bringing it right into their homes. In fact, as the historian Stephen Ambrose notes, "More Americans get their history from Ken Burns than any other source." 

But more than anything else, Ken Burns – Here & There is about the importance that a "sense of place" and belonging has in one's life. That where we come from – or where we go to – is central to who we are and may, ultimately, make all the difference in the world. That the essential American fabric of patriotism and goodness are woven through each of us - and that often, the road less traveled is a good decision.
