Many
never before seen historical documents, letters, awards, costumes and
instruments take the visitor on a three dimensional journey through
Johnny Cash’s life with interactive technology provided by the Nashville
based Griffin Technologies. The museum, designed by the Temeka Group in
collaboration with Bill and Shannon Miller, unites the extensive and
acclaimed collection of Bill Miller, longtime friend of Cash’s and
founder of the official Johnny Cash website www.JohnnyCash.Com,
and pieces from friends, colleagues and family members including his
daughters, son and siblings. The collection features the earliest known
Johnny Cash letters and documents as well as the handwritten manuscript
to the last song ever written by the prolific songwriter, just days
before his passing. Visitors also are given an extensive look into
Cash’s non-entertainment related life including his childhood and early
adulthood and his service in the United States Air Force.
