Inaugural Tracy Frist Legacy Award On the heels of the release of the new eight-part sixteen-hour docuseries, “Country Music,” directed and produced by Ken Burns; written and produced by Dayton Duncan; and produced by Julie Dunfey, the Heritage Foundation of Williamson County awarded Dayton Duncan the 2019 Tracy Frist Legacy Award. Duncan is an award-winning writer, having authored thirteen books, and an Emmy-award-winning documentary filmmaker, having been involved with the work of Ken Burns for nearly thirty years. CEO of the Heritage Foundation Bari Beasley said, “Tracy Frist and Senator Bill Frist would like to shine a national spotlight on Williamson County and the great history and preservation work our community supports every day. To do so, the Frists have been instrumental in creating the new Tracy Frist Legacy Award, which will honor someone at a national level right here in Franklin. The award will be given annually at the Heritage Ball. This year, I could not be more honored to have Dayton Duncan join us. His work speaks for itself, and I know our community will be proud to host him in October.” Dayton Duncan
