Country Music Hall of Fame honoree Kenny Rogers once said, “Music is what I am, but photography would probably be second.” The country music legend was also an accomplished portrait and landscape photographer. Rogers passed away on March 20, 2020, at 81 years old. A collection of his works are on view now at the Booth Museum in Cartersville in an exhibition titled “Through the Years: Kenny Rogers’ Photographs of America.” The Booth Museum’s executive director Seth Hopkins joined “City Lights” host Lois Reitzes to share about Kenny Rogers’ lesser-known body of remarkable work.
