American Masters is a PBS television series which produces biographies on enduring writers, musicians, visual and performing artists, dramatists, filmmakers, and others who have left an indelible impression on the cultural landscape of the United States.
People consistently praise this documentary series for its deeply researched and compelling storytelling, which makes figures like Hazel Scott, Hannah Arendt, and Roberta Flack feel vividly alive. The high production quality and respectful visuals are a given for PBS, though some found episodes on subjects like W.E.B. Du Bois or Mary Oliver less engaging than others. While creator Susan Lacy received some criticism, the overwhelming feeling is that "American Masters" remains an essential, well-crafted look at the artists and thinkers who shaped the country.
