Robert Emmett Ginna has a profound interest in Ireland's history, culture and people. At the age of 74, he walked across the island. He captures 350 miles of personal stories in his new book, A Walk Across Ireland. He talks about his trip, and his former career as a film producer- working with people like John Ford, Peter O'Toole, and David Niven. He also talks about a long-lost interview he did with a young Stanley Kubrick.
