Independent researcher and journalist Abby Burnett discusses "Art, Artistry, and Eccentricity: Stories of Ozark Tombstone Carvers." Burnett has written numerous articles for local historical journals and for the online Arkansas Encyclopedia of History and Culture, most of them having to do with tombstones and stone carvers. She was featured in AETN's cemetery documentary, "Silent Storytellers" which aired in 2010 and 2011 on public television. She is currently finishing work on a book on burial customs of the Arkansas Ozarks, which includes sections on cemeteries, tombstones, quarries and carvers.
