You Can't Make This Up... Welcome back to "On Creativity with Paula Wallace" as we launch our second season! With SCAD and the global community committed to halting the spread of the Coronavirus and practicing life saving social distancing, we hope this podcast helps keep you connected with your creative genes and inspires you to continue to create during these unforeseen times. We need inventiveness, ingenuity, and creativity now more than ever as we reach out to the world around us primarily through virtual means. As today's "On Creativity" special guest so aptly observed, "these are uncharted and difficult times for everyone. But telling stories to one another––whether it's in person or on-line, whether we're in a crowd or sitting alone with a book or video monitor––has always been how human beings grapple with making sense of the world. It reminds us that we're all in this together. These are precisely the times when your creative energies are most helpful––and useful. Tap into them." That special guest is award-winning historian, documentarian, and author, Dayton Duncan. Through his thirty-year collaboration with Ken Burns and Florentine Films, Duncan brings the excitement, drama, and adventure of American history to the curious masses. His passion for uncovering forgotten histories and rediscovering the stories left behind is admirable and inspiring. He gives our past a perspective that helps us forge a stronger future. Duncan and Burn's most recent collaborative achievement was the 2019 eight-part series, "Country Music," and its companion book, "Country Music: An Illustrated History." As with all his work, Duncan's master storytelling abilities resonate alongside the tunes of Johnny Cash, Dolly Parton, Hank Williams, and more of country music's shining pantheon. Tune in to hear how Duncan and Burns became the team they are today, how Duncan recognizes value in the annals of history, and where the past borders on fiction.
