About
This channel honors the people, vibrant culture, and strong traditions of Appalachia. I have spent my life roaming the mountains of southern Appalachia where I grew up, meeting folks where they live and work, and documenting their lives and activities through photographs and stories shared. For more than 40 years these lovely people have invited me onto their farms and into their homes and I am forever humbled by their generosity, kindness, and trust. I have tried to present these proud, independent, hard-working individuals in a straightforward, dignified manner, to honor them and preserve some elements of our culture. I have been fortunate to have many of the images and oral history interviews published in book form as, The Face of Appalachia, On Earth's Furrowed Brow, and Hands in Harmony. Through this channel I will share my experiences in meeting and getting to know these fascinating people and hope you will enjoy the stories and images and learn more about these amazing folk.
