Season 6 of AMC’s “Mad Men” ended recently with the main character, Don Draper, finally (Hopefully) hitting rock bottom.
For the first five seasons, the Madison Avenue ad man of the 1960s was the man every other man wanted to be and the man every woman wanted to be with.
Smooth, handsome, supremely talented at his job, he could charm his way into or out of anything.
At the same time, Don Draper lived a lie. Born Dick Whitman, he grew up dirt poor in a Pennsylvania whorehouse, the son of a prostitute.

Once again, talented musicians will take the stage as part of this year’s songwriter evening in Cynthiana.  
The event continues to attract diverse, professional musicians and has become a staple in the community’s yearly ART Walk – An Evening With The Arts.  
This year’s slate of artists feature Brigid Kaelin, Carrie Johnson and Joel Henderson.  
“I’m thrilled to have artists of this caliber participate,” said Nell Anne Gossett, the musical host.
