American Masters: Laura Ingalls Wilder: Prairie to Page presents an unvarnished look at the unlikely author whose autobiographical fiction helped shape American ideas of the frontier and self-reliance. A Midwestern farm woman who published her first novel at age 65, Laura Ingalls Wilder transformed her frontier childhood into the best-selling "Little House" series.

The documentary delves into the legacy of the iconic pioneer as well as the way she transformed her early life into enduring legend, a process that involved a little-known collaboration with her daughter Rose. Featuring never-before-published letters, photographs and family artifacts, the film explores the context in which Wilder lived and wrote, as well as the true nature of her personality. Directed and produced by Emmy®-Award winner Mary McDonagh Murphy (Harper Lee: American Masters). This year marks the 85th anniversary of the publication of Little House on the Prairie (1935).

I grew up watching Little House On The Prairie and I didnt realize it was based on a real family. My sister in law showed me pictures of what they really looked like. Later on I got the books. So I was excited about this program and it was Great!. I learned so much from watching it and my sister in law loved it too. So I got DVDS for she and I and it has Great bonus features too. Loved it!!.
