Maquoketa Portraits & National Parks Series

A conversation from last November with Maquoketa native Rose Frantzen. Frantzen set up a storefront on main street last summer and painted portraits of all the residents willing to participate. The project was one of three featured in the Smithsonian's portrait gallery as part of an exhibition examining "community." Later in the hour we listen back to an interview with Dayton Duncan. The Indianola native co-produced "The National Parks" series with Ken Burns for PBS.
