	Current.org \| Ric Burns
		Burns says that in hindsight it seems like less of a coincidence that the idea struck numerous people in the early '90s.
		Burns sees New York as the "financial and imaginative capital" of America and the world, and also as the place where modernism has been invented and constantly reinvented.
		If Ric Burns' informal apprenticeship in film proceeded along at a comfortable pace, his move to directing was a bracing experience.

	Royce Carlton - Ric Burns
		Burns' "splendid, searching" film (Entertainment Weekly) is the first to explore his astonishing artistic output from the late 1940s to his untimely death in 1987.
		Burns' haunting story of the life and work of America's greatest and only Nobel Prize-winning playwright ù set within the context of the harrowing family dramas and personal upheavals that shaped O'Neill, and that O'Neill in turn struggled all his life to give form to in his art.
		More than a biography of the greatest literary genius the American theater has produced, Burns' film is a moving meditation on loss and redemption, family and memory, the cost of being an artist, and the inescapability of the past.

	Amazon.fr : New York: An Illustrated History: Livres en anglais: Ric Burns,James Sanders,Lisa Ades (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-10)
		PBS darling Ric Burns (brother of Ken) teamed up with James Sanders and Lisa Ades to produce this spectacular volume and the accompanying 12-hour series.
		Burns and company are clearly enamored of New York, seeing it as "the ultimate city of dreaming and desire, a place of passage and transformation, of possibility and exchange, of mingled cultures and identities." They also see New York, with all its ups, downs, problems, and triumphs, as a microcosm of the modern world.
		Burns and Sanders have successfully marshaled a huge amount of material into a format that is informative and highly entertaining.

	Ric Burns navigates fog, genius of playwright Eugene O'Neill
		Burns and his co-screenwriters, the historians Arthur and Barbara Gelb, who are also among the film's well-spoken interview subjects, employ a kind of flashback structure, opening with the arrival of O'Neill and his second wife, Carlotta, to Tao House in Danville.
		Burns has created a probing, beautifully crafted consideration of greatness -- great talent and even greater sadness -- and while he gets as far as anyone can in knowing who O'Neill really was, his subject remains partially veiled to us.
		Perhaps Burns can be faulted for skipping over some aspects of O'Neill's life -- his relationship with his children, for example, is only mentioned in passing, but considering his relationship with his own parents, it probably merits more attention than it is given here.

	Tuned In: Ric Burns fetes Andy Warhol in 'American Masters' special (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-10)
		Burns wrote, produced and directed the film, which makes extensive use of the archives at Pittsburgh's Andy Warhol Museum and includes interviews with art critic Dave Hickey, author Stephen Koch, writer George Plimpton and Warhol's brother, John Warhola.
		Burns said the image Warhol cultivated, which the artist referred to as "putting on his Andy," was important to him and an important part of his legacy.
		Burns said the film will look at the private sides of Warhol's life, including his devotion to church and his mother, Julia, and his homosexuality, but the documentary will spend more time exploring Warhol as cultural archaeologist, "Andy, the transformer of himself, the transformer of his culture, the transformer of art in the 1960s."

	Documentary 101: Eugene O’Neill — The Genius of Ric Burns
		Burns uses Richards and his other “talking heads” to seamlessly tell his story.
		Burns didn’t lose playwright Tony Kushner, who movingly remarks in the film, "In O'Neill, there's this absolute, sort of God-ordained mission, which is to keep searching, even if in the process he discovers that there is no God.
		Burns uses this point in time as a fulcrum to look backward and relate O’Neill’s break with his family, and then look forward, as O’Neill reclaims his family and, as his reputation declines and illness threatens to silence him forever, wrenches from himself three of the greatest plays ever written by an American.

		Ric Burns, who with James Sanders and Lisa Ades constructed NEW YORK: An Illustrated History, is the brother of Ken Burns, who through multiple media has taken on such weighty topics as baseball and jazz, complex subjects about which people are extremely passionate.
		What Burns, Sanders and Ades have ultimately created is the most complete and stirring portrait to date of what is arguably the greatest city on Earth.
		This NEW YORK: An Illustrated History is an expanded version of the tome that was originally published in 1999 and reprinted in 2001, shortly before the terrorist attack upon the city that changed it, and the world, forever.

		Burns' great gift for entertaining while educating is undeniable, and his greatest asset as a documentary film-maker.
		It is a shame then that Ric Burns favorite subject, Coney Island, was produced as a single episode for PBS's "American Experiance".
		But after the burning of "Dreamland", the film quickly recounts that Coney would fade out of popularity, that "Luna Park" would burn down in the 40's, and the last of the three theme parks "Steeplechase" would close in 1963.

	The Brooklyn Rail - Andy Warhol Silver Screen: Ric Burns’ ANDY WARHOL: A DOCUMENTARY
		In the mode of Burns’ previous documentary work, the film presents a collage of ideas, images and sound bites that urge the viewer towards the acceptance of the film itself as the definitive authority on its subject.
		The word “genius” is poured over the specter of Warhol, brushing aside questions that address the possibility of radical change in contemporary art, as well as Warhol’s loaded significance for artists and critics functioning in the art world that he handed down to them.
		A close reading of Burns’ film allows the viewer to understand the contradictions that Warhol embodied as both a seemingly passive participant in his art as well as a mastermind of his own artistic legacy.

	ANDY WARHOL: A DOCUMENTARY FILM previously at Film Forum in New York City
		Burns reclaims Warhol as not just a great artist but also a shaper of history - an unlikely visionary who was instrumental in sculpting the times in which he lived.”
		Ric Burns’s 4-hour, epic ANDY WARHOL: A DOCUMENTARY FILM, is a portrait of one of the 20th century’s most influential, controversial, and paradoxically mystifying artists.
		So it is fitting that Ric Burns should draw extensively on rare archival materials, many of them shot by Warhol himself, from the heyday of his fame in the ’60s and ‘70s.

	The Civil War: An Illustrated History (Geoffrey C. Ward , Ric Burns , Ken Burns) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-10)
		The Civil War, written by Ken Burns, Ric Burns and historian Geoffrey C. Ward, is the companion volume to the outstanding 1990 documentary series from the Public Broadcasting System.
		The Civil War follows the structure of Ken Burns' documentary, and most of the individuals portrayed in the PBS series (ranging from Presidents Lincoln and Davis to Union soldier Elisha Hunt Rhodes -- who rose from private to colonel during the war -- and Confederate soldier-turned-author Sam Watkins) are wonderfully described in the text.
		While definitely not a substitute for the film on which it's based, The Civil War is a fine book and a good one-volume introduction to the worst internal crisis the American people ever faced.
