Help Barbara Weisbart celebrate her last program day as Adult Enrichment Director before retirement with this special program on Folk Singer John Denver. John Denver was born in Roswell, New Mexico and became one of the most popular American performers of the 20th century with such hits as Take Me Home Country Road and Annie’s Song. How did this genial singer-songwriter became such a unique figure in American popular culture? Why did environmental causes become one of his life passions? Entertainment historian John Kenrick has dug up some rare performance videos and celebrates the life and career of someone who delighted the world by proclaiming, “Thank God I’m A Country Boy!” Sponsored by Carol Poppel in honor of Barbara Weisbart’s retirement.
