Bio
I was born in Los Angeles, and now live in San Francisco,. Inbetween I lived in Europe for a good segment of time.
About my vocational side of life, and what leads to a good amount of the writing on this blog:
I perform and teach in the clown realm. the term no-nose clowning and european theatrical clowning applies. I offer workshops and trainings focused on humorous expression on 4 continents. Themes include "Humor your Human" , "ClownZen, the Power of Levity", "ButohClown" ,"Clown is Poem".
I'm one of many who bring humor, joy and laughter into crisis areas- where it does a lot of good. I started by performing in 3 small Guatemalan refugee communities in Chiapas, Mexico in 1987. That has lead a pathway through South Africa, Croatia,
Guatemala, Haiti, Kosovo, , Nepal and Sudan. This last January-February (2009), I traveled to Myanmar/Burma on an international Clowns Without Borders project performing 20 shows with 3 Myanmar artists, one Swedish and one Australian clown. I also offered workshops with activity leaders/trainers from a number of NGO's using humorous expression to both release trauma and empower children, not to mention have a lot of fun.
