Faces of America

Faces of America is about accomplished Americans' ancestral history. Throughout the show, the host reveals information about these famous character's ancestors and what they find really amazes the guests of the show. For example, famous chef Mario Batali finds out that his cooking instincts and talent comes from his Italian grandmother or Famous Asian-American figure skater Kristi Yamaguchi figures out that her grandfather fought against the Japanese in WWII.

The whole show is about the amazing things you can find out about your family and sometimes realize how your life would have been if your ancestors didn't make the decisions they made in life. One can realize how important and related our ancestors can be in our daily lives by watching this show. Where we are today has a huge relation to what our ancestors did in their past, that is why everyone must appreciate the sense of family and respect not only the ones that are alive but the ones that have passed away many years ago.
