While we tinker, the irreplaceable glories of Nature are slipping away: the tiger, the elephant, the
grizzly bear & so many more - in fact experts predict we're likely to lose up to one-third of all species in
our lifetime! My passion for Nature began as a child when I learned to ride the waves on the beach at
Santa Monica & camped out with my family in national parks such as Yellowstone & Yosemite where
I met bears, swung in the tops of trees. Then seeing how we abuse Nature - the very foundations of
life! - I wote a lovesong to a whale & put together a show "Songs & Stories for the Earth & the
Animals (5-time ASCAP award winner) which I took around to places such as the Peoples' Voice Cafe,
the Knitting Factory, New England Folk Festival, book stores, libraries...The show has culminated in
an 18-song CD "The Spirit Rises" which addresses the current desperate plight of the earth & her
cargo & the awesome healing powers of Nature!
