"PBS Books, in collaboration with WETA, thrilled present ICONIC AMERICA’s Host and Executive Producer Davis M. Rubenstein, author of The American Experiment.  Rubenstein’s book The American Experiment is part of the ICONIC AMERICA SUMMER READING Challenge and has been designated June’s book. Join us to learn about The American Experiment and David Rubenstein’s extraordinary work to explore America’s democracy, culture, innovation, and ideas. Then, Mr. Rubenstein will share special insights into his series ICONIC AMERCIA: OUR SYMBOLS & OUR STORIES.  As we consider this series, we also are challenged to think about the symbols that endure that speak to what a society values and how people see themselves."
