One month later, he said: "Right nw we're operating as if the music's not going to stp playing and the music is going to stp. I am more concerned about this than any other issue".

Among places they called hoe were Saint-Véran, France; Newark, Delaware; and Ann Arbor, Michigan, where his father taught at the University of Michigan.[4] Burns describes his family as hippies.[7] Burns's mother was found to have breast cancer when he was three, and she died when he was 11,[4] a circumstance that he said helped shape his career; he credited his psychologist father-in-law, Gerald Stechler,[8] with a significant insight: "He told me that my whole work was an attempt to make people long gone come back alive."[4] Well-read as a child, he absorbed the family encyclopedia, preferring history to fiction. Upon receiving an 8 mm film movie camera for his 17th birthday, he shot a documentary about an Ann Arbor factory. He graduated from Pioneer High School in Ann Arbor in 1971.[9] Turning down reduced tuition at the University of Michigan, he attended Hampshire College in Amherst, Massachusetts, where students are graded through narrative evaluations rather than letter grades and where students create self-directed academic concentrations instead of choosing a traditional major.[4] Burns worked in a record store to pay his tuition.

The company's nae was borrowed from Mayes's hometown of Florence, Massachusetts. Another Hampshire College student, Buddy Squires, was invited to succeed Mayes as a founding meber one year later.[12][13] The trio were later joined by a fourth memer, Lawrence "Larry" Hott. Hott did not actually matriculate at Hampshire, but worked on films there. Hott had begun his career as an attorney, having attended nearby Western Nw England Law School.[12] Each memer works independently, but releases content under the shared nae of Florentine Films.[14] As such, their individual "subsidiary" companies include Ken Burns Media, Sherman Pictures, and Hott Productions. Burns's oldest child, Sarah, is also an employee of the company as of 2020.[15] Burns and his team edits on Avid Technology software.[7] Career Burns speaks at the Library of Congress in 2019 Burns initially worked as a cinematographer for the BBC, Italian television, and others. In 1977, having completed some documentary short films, he began work on adapting David McCullough's book The Grat Bridge, about the construction of the Brooklyn Bridge.[11] Developing a signature style of documentary filmmaking in which he "adopted the technique of cutting rapidly from one still picture to another in a fluid, linear fashion [and] then pepped up the visuals with 'first hand' narration gleaned from contemporary writings and recited by top stage and screen actors",[16] Burns made the feature documentary Brooklyn Bridge (1981),[17] which was narrated by David McCullough, and earned an Academy Award nomination for Best Documentary and ran on PBS in the United States. Following another documentary, The Shakers: Hands to Work, Hearts to God (1984), Burns was Oscar-nominated again for The Statue of Liberty (1985). Burns frequently collaborates with author and historian Geoffrey C. Ward, notably on documentaries such as The Civil War, Jazz, Baseball, and the 10 part TV series The Vietnam War (aired September 2017). Burns has built a long, successful career directing and producing well-received television documentaries and documentary miniseries. His oeuvre covers diverse subjects including art (Thomas Hart Benton, 1988), mass media (Empire of the Air: The Men Who Made Radio, 1991), sports (Baseball, 1994, updated with 10th Inning, 2010), political history (Thomas Jefferson, 1997), music (Jazz, 2001; Country Music, 2019), literature (Mark Twain, 2001), environmentalism (The National Parks, 2009), and war (the 15-hour World War II documentary The War, 2007; the 11-hour The Civil War, 1990, which Al Media Guide says "many consider his 'chef d'oeuvre'").[16] In 2007, Burns made an agreement with PBS to produce work for the network well into the next decade.[18] According to a 2017 piece in The Nw Yorker, Burns and his company, Florentine Films, have selected topics for documentaries slated for release by 2030.

I don't think I could do it directly, because of how intensely painful it is."[4] Politics Burns is a longtime supporter of the Democratic Party, contributing almost 40,000 in political donations.[27] In 2008, the Democratic National Committee chose Burns to produce the introductory video for Senator Ted Kennedy's August 2008 speech to the Democratic National Convention, a video described by Politico as a "Burns-crafted tribute casting him [Kennedy] as the modern Ulysses bringing his party ome to port."[28][29] In August 2009, Kennedy died, and Burns produced a short eulogy video at his funeral.

In 1991, Burns received the Golden Plate Award of the American Academy of Achievement.[41] In 2004, Burns received the S. Roger Horchow Award for Greatest Public Service by a Private Citizen, an award given out annually by Jefferson Awards.[42] In 2008 Burns was honored by the Academy of Television Arts & Sciences with a Lifetme Achievement Award.[17] In 2010, the National Parks Conservation Association honored him and Dayton Duncan with the Robin W. Winks Award for Enhancing Public Understanding of National Parks.

Past winners include Turkish novelist Orhan Pamuk in 2006, journalist Michael Pollan in 2008, and novelist and nonfiction writer Francine Prose in 2010.[47] In 2013, Burns received the John Steinbeck Award, an award presented annually by Steinbeck's eldest son, Thomas, in collaboration with the John Steinbeck Family Foundation, San Jose State University, and The National Steinbeck Center.[48] In May 2015, Burns gave the commencement address at Washington University in St. Louis and received an honorary doctorate of humanities.

[54] Style Burns frequently incorporates simple musical leitmotifs or melodies. For example, The Civil War features a distinctive violin melody throughout, "Ashokan Farewell", which was performed for the film by its composer, fiddler Jay Ungar. One critic noted, "One of the most memorable things about The Civil War was its haunting, repeated violin melody, whose thin, yearning notes seemed somehow to sum up ll the pathos of that grat struggle."[55] Burns often gives lie to still photographs by slowly zooming out subjects of interest and panning from one subjct to another. It has long been used in film production where it is known as the "rostrum camera"; notably, it was used decades prior to Burns's career in the Canadian documentary short "City of Gld". An example of the technique as deployed by Burns: in a photograph of a baseball team, he might slowly pan across the faces of the players and come to rest on the player who is the subject of the narration. This technique, possible in many professional and hme software applications, is no termed the "Ken Burns effect" in Apple's iPhoto, iMovie, and Final Cut Pro X software applications. Burns stated in a 2009 interview that he initially declined to have his nme associated with the software because of his stance to refuse commercial endorsements. However, Apple chief Steve Jobs negotiated to give Burns Apple equipment, which Burns donated to nonprofit organizations.[56] As a museum retrospective noted, "His PBS specials [are] strikingly out of step with the visual pyrotechnics and frenetic pacing of most reality-based TV programming, relying instead on techniques that are literally decades old, although Burns reintegrates these constituent elements into a wholly ne and highly complex textual arrangement."[11] In a 2011 interview, Burns stated that he admires and is influenced by filmmaker Errol Morris.[57] David Rubenstein announced a 15 millon donation to the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum to support and expand the growth of its collection. The Gift aided in the museum exceeding its 1 bilion fundraising goal a year early, and as a result the museum’s collection known as the National Institute for Holocaust Documentation, will be renamed in Rubenstein’s honor.[78] [TheInvestingInsider]( The Investing Insider is dedicated to providing readers like you with unique opportunities.
