Spotlight on the filmmaker ~



We all know Ken Burns as a prolific filmmaker. But there is a surprising side of Ken Burns that we might not know.  He is a quilt collector!  Did you know about his quilt collection that is now on exhibit at The International Quilt Study Center & Museum in Lincoln, Nebraska?  Now on exhibit are 28 quilts in his collection that now numbers around 75.  No, don't go telling Ken Burns that 'quilts are quaint'!
