Years ago, I found myself drinking single-malt Scotch with a small group of raptor enthusiasts on a remote island off the coast of Maine. One of them had been Robert F. Kennedy Jr’s roommate at boarding school, where the two had apparently developed a shared obsession with falcons. He had stories to tell, but I’d rather not get sued. Besides, it’d also piss off a lot of falconers. This past spring, I joined a couple hundred falconers about a dozen miles from downtown Boise, Idaho.

I’ve never been known for my discerning taste when it comes to television-watching habits, especially when I’m working. As a writer and painter, one might rightly assume there would be music playing in the background as I create, but they would be wrong. Since I was a young girl, I have been totally distracted by music — be it vocal or instrumental — and I find myself actively listening and then humming first the melody and then the French horn part to whatever is playing.

How do filmmakers get period clothing to look the part? Inside the textile workshop where the past comes to life Even before you walk into the prefabricated steel building set in the woods off a country road, you’ll hear a muffled clacking sound. Once you step through the door into the workroom of Thistle Hill Weavers outside of Cherry Valley, New York, the noise from the electric-powered mechanized looms grows almost deafening.
