| Video Discription | On July 17 , 2024, Michael Streissguth presented “American Culture and the Art of Marty Stuart” as part of the History Is Lunch series. Mississippi native Marty Stuart is a Grammy award winner, member of the Country Music Hall of Fame, and admired today by such artists as Wynton Marsalis, Ken Burns, and Mavis Staples. In the early 1970s when he was barely a teenager, he began playing with bluegrass legend Lester Flatt. Stuart followed his mentor to stages throughout Appalachia and the South, a rural circuit that was defined by an acoustic sound created by masters such as Bill Monroe, Earl Scruggs, and Mother Maybelle Carter. “One part mountain soul and another African American–influenced rhythm, the music Marty Stuart received was alternately celebrated and neglected over the years, but never stopped evolving,” said Streissguth, author of the new book Highways and Heartaches: How Ricky Skaggs, Marty Stuart, and Children of the New South Saved the Soul of Country Music. “And the music he has made moving forward has been influenced in surprising ways, including perhaps the Freedom Summer murders in his hometown of Philadelphia.” Michael Streissguth is professor in the Carroll College of Arts and Sciences at Le Moyne College in Syracuse. He earned his BA in journalism and history from Indiana University of Pennsylvania and his MA in communications from Purdue University. Streissguth is the author of ten books, including Johnny Cash: The Biography and Outlaw: Waylon, Willie, Kris and the Renegades of Nashville. He has written and directed three documentary films, including the award-winning Nighthawks on the Blue Highway and The Tower Road Bus and served as a program advisor on Ken Burns’ PBS documentary series Country Music. His writing has appeared in the Washington Post Magazine, Irish Times, Mojo, Bluegrass Unlimited, Living Blues, the Journal of Country Music, and other outlets, and he frequently contributes to rollingstone.com. History Is Lunch is a weekly lecture series of the Mississippi Department of Archives and History that explores all aspects of the state’s past. The hour-long programs are held in the Craig H. Neilsen Auditorium of the Museum of Mississippi History and Mississippi Civil Rights Museum building at 222 North Street in Jackson and livestreamed on YouTube and Facebook. |
