The Frank and Anne Warner collection is one of the great treasures in the American Folklife Center archive, containing a wealth of material collected by the husband-and-wife team. “From the Mountains to the Sea” is a two-hour live presentation with multimedia, focusing on the collection. It features the voices of their sons Jeff and Gerret, photographs of the tradition bearers and their land and the insights gained by the Warners as they traveled through rural America from 1938 to 1966 in search of old songs.
