Ken has been producing documentaries for over three decades, including such films as The Civil War, Baseball, Jazz, The National Parks, The Vietnam War, Prohibition and Mark Twain.
View this app’s streaming video content with one of these features:
∙ Timeline view: Zoom in and out to explore a chronological history of America. Select scenes from Ken’s films to learn about that particular moment.
∙ Theme view: Select a theme (Art, Hard Times, Innovation, Politics, Race, War, Leadership) to see a playlist of scenes selected by Ken. Each playlist illustrates common patterns in American heritage. In the playlist “Race,” for example, you’ll see how moments from The Civil War, Thomas Jefferson and Jazz are related.
