AADL Talks To: Ken Burns, Documentary Filmmaker
In this episode, AADL Talks To Ken Burns. Ken is a documentary filmmaker known for his critically acclaimed films exploring all facets of American culture. Ken reflects on growing up and coming of age in Ann Arbor during the 1960s, and how this period of intense political and cultural activity mixed with family tragedy charted his journey. He takes us down the streets we remember -- past restaurants and theaters that have come and gone -- and through a back alleyway during the 1969 South University Street Riot. Along the way, he highlights the people, places, and vibrant musical and cinema culture that left its mark on his work.

'HAIR-RAISING' RIDE: One of the sights in yesterday afternoon's University student parade through the campus area was this "cave man" seemingly dragging his woman by her hair. The parade, part of "Spring Weekend," fetured carts and floats with a cartoon motif. Whether this chap represented Alley Oop was not immediately clear to anybody.
