Columnist Doug Moe of the Wisconsin State Journal today outlined my new film: THE LIBRARIAN AND THE BANJO.
The documentary will star Dena Epstein, a music librarian who unearthed evidence that the banjo came from Africa, and helped lay the groundwork for the black string band revival. She turns 95 next month! Long Live Dena.
