With music and stories for Thanksgiving, it's Giving Thanks: a Celebration of Fall, Food, and Gratitude. This year, we remember the great American writer John Updike. From his 2002 Giving Thanks visit, Updike shares November reflections and holiday memories, including a Thanksgiving verse he wrote for his children. From his book Americana, he'll read a soaring poem of gratitude, "To a Skylark."
