Artist Statement
Throughout my childhood Mom sang the 4th verse of the Star-Spangled Banner to my brother and me pretty much every night, just after reading to us at bedtime. In July 2004, when I was 9 years old, I created this piece to commemorate the patriotic spirit throughout our family and household. I knew this verse by heart (and I thought everyone else knew it too). Years later Mom shared with me that all cadets learn the 4th verse during their first year at USAFA.
