Several of the narratives of this historical research and contemporary interviews will be familiar - who doesn't know about the Muppets? - but some of it, very likely most of it, will be new to you. Or, if the name is familiar, you might not be aware about the local origins of seminal acts that got their starts in the Washington area, the world-famous Ringling Brothers circus and entertainment pioneer Al Jolson being examples.
You will also learn about some of the talented artists DC claims as its own but never made it into the show business mainstream despite undeniable and astonishing talent. Danny Gatton, for instance. And John Fahey. And Eva Cassidy. The list goes on. (From the Foreword) - Buzz McCLain, former critic with The Washington Post.
