West Tennessee Delta Heritage Center

You know our 3-star Tennessee state flag represents Eastern, Middle and Western regions of the state while each is proud of its own heritage, but Middle and West Tennessee are joined by what’s now called what other than Music Highway. It’s actually Interstate 40 between Nashville, TN and Memphis, TN, and when we stopped at exit 56 near Brownsville, TN we discovered an amazing place that honors Tina Turner and musical roots with 5-star flair. Join Nashville Public Television’s Tennessee Crossroads to find out more.

You know our 3-star Tennessee state flag represents Eastern, Middle and Western regions of the state. While each is proud of its own heritage, Ken Wilshire says Middle and West Tennessee are joined by what's now called what other than Music Highway...It's actually Interstate 40 between Nashville and Memphis... and when Ken stopped at exit 56 near Brownsville he discovered an amazing place that honors its musical roots with 5-star flair.....

Ken Wilshire joined the Tennessee Crossroads in 2008 with a desire to tell stories about people who have found their passions in life and who would otherwise go unrecognized for their contributions to their community. Ken began his career at WREG-TV in Memphis, writing, producing and editing news stories, features and documentaries. After leaving Channel 3 he joined Fed Ex in their communications department as a writer/producer and was promoted to the department manager. Ken spent almost 25 years in operations management at FedEx and other Fortune 500 companies.
