AS SEEN ON TV: JOHN ADAMS, BY GEORGE

On the day before President Obama's inauguration, we featured an "As Seen On TV" picture of John Adams as played by Paul Giamatti last year on HBO. But back in 1976, George Grizzard played out the entire life of our second president in 'The Adams Chronicles'.
PBS provided this picture about a year and a half ago to mark the passing of George Grizzard, who played Adams. John Adams is shown here as a young man arriving in Boston in 1758, as seen in the first chapter of the mini-series.
