"Renowned scholar Dr. Henry Louis Gates, Jr., returns for an all-new season of FINDING YOUR ROOTS. Over the course of ten episodes, Gates uses genealogical detective work and cutting-edge DNA analysis to guide twenty influential guests thorugh the branches of their family trees, traveling hundreds of years into the past to discover people and places long forgotten. From coastal towns in Italy to rural villages in Russia to the slave plantations of the antebellum South, the surprising stories of extraordinary ancestors are brought to life from the annals of history. As the pages turn in each guest's book of life, emotional revelations give way to complex questions about individual and collective identity. Through Gates' discerning touch, FINDING YOUR ROOTS reveals what every family history shares -- love, hardship, and triumph -- human experiences that transcend borders and merge to from an American root system fortified by its diversity. The season features actor Glenn Close, John Lithgow, Jane Lynch, Christopher Meloni, and Tony Shalhoub; Broadway stars Audra McDonald and Mandy Patinkin; filmmakers Kasi Lemmons and John Waters; talk show host and author Andy Cohen; journalists Gretchen Carlson, Maria Hinojosa, Don Lemon, and Nina Totenberg; comedians Lewis Black, Jim Gaffigan, and Roy Wood, Jr.; and musicians Clint Black, Rosanne Cash, and Pharrell Williams."--Container.
