Dancer, Artist Enlivens Death Valley Junction
In 1967 a flat tire led dancer and artist Marta Becket to Death Valley, an opera house — and her life's work. Today, she no longer dances, but she continues to attract an audience.
As It Turns Out, 'The Wackness' Is Largely Dope

An Outlaw's Odyssey, Remembered 'Gonzo' Style
Writer Hunter S. Thompson sped through life in a drug-addled frenzy, and the documentary <em>Gonzo</em> manages to keep pace. The film captures the spirit of a man who blurred fact and fiction in pursuit of truth.

'Thurgood' Plays To Standing Ovations On Broadway
Supreme Court Justice Thurgood Marshall is perhaps best known for Brown v. the Board of Education. Now, actor Laurence Fishburne is playing him on Broadway in <em>Thurgood</em>, which is playing to sold-out audiences and standing ovations on Broadway.
New Orleans Park Has Ear For Jazz
Many national parks have myths, legends and tall tales. At the New Orleans Jazz National Historical Park, the true legends are the musicians. Drummer Benny Jones, leader of the Treme Brass Band, and park ranger Bruce Barnes tell the story of the music.
'Kite Runner' Star's Family Feels Exploited By Studio
