With a mission to explore for the betterment of our country, who wouldn't want all of the glory and fame it would bring. Many people around me asked of my adventures or my viewpoint on my comrades.

Each day brought new important information, but also unwelcoming hardships. Thomas Jefferson bought the Louisiana territory in 1803 by France, planning to enlarge…

played a real historical character named George Gibson and I also played fiddle and wrote some music for the show, which was really crazy because my family is from the Pacific Northwest and I grew up reading books about the fiddlers on the Lewis and Clark expedition! It all kind of felt meant to be. The production was massive and there were a lot of big names involved— HBO had teamed up with Brad Pitt and Tom Hanks’ companies and NatGeo— but after a few months of shooting there were some…

During the expedition they faced a lot of adversity but they faced a lot of discovery as well. I can point out that one of the initial…
