Episode Details

Tony Guida interviews Betsy Ashton, renowned portrait painter who out of a sense of duty, has shifted her work from the rich and accomplished to immigrants she encounters all over New York City. Using journalism skills honed in her prior career as a CBS News correspondent, she interviews and paints people from a variety of countries and cultures, who were not born here but chose to come to this country, or were brought here as children, seeking safety or freedom or opportunity or all of the above.
