And, in this week’s installment of our ongoing series This I Believe, Bob talks with curator Dan Gedimanabout the essay of Ben Lucien Burman.  Author, journalist, and World War I veteran Burman wrote 22 books, including the bestselling Catfish Bend series about life in a fictitious Louisiana river town. Several of his books became movies, including Steamboat Round the Bend, which starred Will Rogers.
