Eastport, established as a town in 1798 and incorporated as a city in 1893, is one of Maine’s more fascinating locales.

In this episode of Chasing Maine, Roger McCord travels back to Eastport to present a cross-section of Eastport by interviewing three very different people in the community.

Laura Stanzyck, a former theater casting director in New York City, now owns the Phoenix Fine Wines bar. Don Dunbar, a lifelong resident, is a photographer and gallery owner. And Vittoria Chierici, an internationally known artist, talks about the history and serenity to be found in Eastport.
