Ken Burns is a documentary filmmaker from New Hampshire. His new film, Leonardo da Vinci, is out this week on PBS. We spoke with Ken from his New York crib about glad-handing and backstabbing, how we all met, his friend Ralph Lauren makes his suits, relentless curiosity, lateral thinking, his footwear, all three of us are lefthanded, how he finally got a big boy haircut, his Bar Pitti order, viewing the Mona Lisa after hours, his thoughts on physical media, and so much more.
