Almost There

Season 2016 Episode 12 | 1h 33m 15s | Video has closed captioning.

Eighty-two- year-old Peter Anton has spent decades obsessively chronicling his life story in a massive, illustrated autobiography titled Almost There, and nothing — not poverty, isolation, or crippling disabilities — will stop him from seeing it published. Anton’s work, which is best described as outsider art, was made in the home where he’s been living since he was a child.
