Since I began doing publicity for my books, I’ve had many wonderful opportunities to discuss my work with a growing number of intelligent, supportive, and inspiring people. I plan to share as many of these interviews as possible, both video and audio, on this page. Keep checking back often to see what’s new.
On December 2, 2009, I had the pleasure of discussing my work for peace with Dafna Michaelson for her inspiring documentary, 50 in 52 Journey. She recently posted that video, below, on the documentary’s website and on YouTube. Dafna spent all of 2009 traveling to each of the 50 states to interview several people in each state who are dedicating their lives to making this a better world for everyone. I must also thank Caitlin Flaherty, Executive Director of the Arizona Department of Peace Campaign, for generously inviting us to film the interview in her peaceful and inspiring backyard desert garden.
This summer, I had the joy of being interviewed by Linda Thompson for The Authors Show on AuthorsWebTV.com. Linda knows how to make her guests feel totally comfortable and she's a published author herself. The same is true of producer and network owner Danielle Hampson, who also functions as the camera crew. It's fun to work with such ambitious and intelligent women. I hope to have the experience again when my future books are released.
On April 20, 2009, I made my TV debut on "AM Arizona" on KAZT-TV in Prescott, AZ. Of course, I've done TV before, most notably in the early 1990s for my Night Owl's Newsletter, but this was the first one for my book, The World I Imagine: A creative manual for ending poverty and building peace. I was delighted that we were able to discuss the vital role of community--one by one and, eventually, every community around the world--in the task of solving the problems of our society.
On December 17, 2009, I enjoyed an inspiring hour-long discussion with Njideka N. Olatunde on her Blog Talk Radio show, "WellnessExperience." This interview turned out to be the final one for both of us in 2009. A fitting act of closure for the year, and a perfect stepping stone into 2010.
My conversation with S. Denice Newton on her Blog Talk Radio show, "The AfterThoughts News Hour," on September 23, 2009, was also a delight, as we took extra time to discuss several creative solutions to the problems of society. Start playing this file, and you'll be surprised at the person who "opened" for my "act," which came much later in the program. I was extremely honored to be preceded by this now-famous recording, along with S. Denice Newton's wonderful treatise on the subject of Peace, as well as news of the day.
If you’ll forgive a proud aunt, I must show off a recent video featuring my favored nephew, Dan Fritz, in his capacity as news producer for KPFK 90.7 FM, the L.A. station of the Pacifica Foundation Progressive Radio Network. Following is the report Dan posted on KPFK’s home page:
10-30-09 Climate Action Day
On October 24, environmental groups around the world held a day for climate action ahead of the Copenhagen talks later this year.
I collaborated with the folks at Green Observers who produced video on the action in Manhattan Beach.
