This event preludes Ken Burn’s two-part, four-hour documentary, Benjamin Franklin, that airs April 4-5 at 8 p.m on WKAR-HD 23.1.
Benjamin Franklin explores the revolutionary life of one of the 18th century's most consequential and compelling personalities, whose work and words unlocked the mystery of electricity and helped create the United States. "Write things worth reading," he said in Poor Richard's Almanac, "or do things worth the writing." Benjamin Franklin did both.
