A Georgia Blacksmith Forges a Future in Fire and Film
Trenton Tye grew up in Southwest Georgia focused on becoming a blacksmith.
As a child, he became fascinated with the trade while on a field trip to a Civil War site. Trenton now has his own business, Purgatory Ironworks, in the town of Morgan.
He never thought his love for the ancient craft - which combines function, art, and history in an alluring alloy - would lead him to show business.
