Winter/Spring Film Series

You'll Find Out
Friday, April 29 | 8 pm
East Building, Museum Auditorium

One of North Carolina's favorite sons—band leader, radio and recording star Kay Kyser—had 11 No. 1 records and a hit radio show from 1938 to 1949. Head cheerleader during his years at the University of North Carolina, he retired to Chapel Hill, where he helped found UNC Memorial Hospital and UNC Public Television. His daughter Kimberly Kyser introduces “a completely entertaining musical mystery".

Please plan to stay for a Q&A with Kimberly Kyser following the film.
