We have come to know him as a picker... a finder and rescuer of objects. But Mike Wolfe is saving much more than objects. His passion is fueled by a soul-deep appreciation of America’s history, values, stories.

Those are the treasures he seeks... in rusted, worn, no-longer-perfect things. In two-lane roads that lead over a rise and then who knows where. In small towns, crumbling buildings, wrinkled faces. He is America’s curator, preserving what he finds for the rest of us.
