In November 2017, I traveled to Zurich to receive the Max Geilinger Prize, awarded for building cultural relations between Switzerland and the English-speaking world. Celebrating over lunch at a 300-year-old guild house was quite an experience. Randolph Head CdeP 1974

Clap Your Hands!’ I’ve performed these Appalachian inspired songs for years in schools and libraries all over Georgia. The music appeals to kids and adults: half the songs are sung, half are instrumentals. It’s also a family affair: […]

Life is good in Atlanta. I have lived in Georgia so long that my family in San Francisco insist that I speak with a southern accent. My boys, Elijah and Devon, are 15 and 12 years old which means we are between bar mitzvahs! I am still clowning for the Big Apple Circus; and I […]
