I was born in a small town in Pennsylvania. I dropped out of MIT & obtained a BA in English literature from the University of South Florida. Poetry & song-writing became a passion. Life as a hippie turned into life as meditation & music. My taste in music runs the gamut. Everything from corny pop to deep classical. On my show I like to be very eclectic, sometimes including poetry & music from my own 3 albums (Now Here This, Prayer Wheel, Offering). Rock, R&B, jazz, country...You name it! Lyrics with a positive message are featured (e.g. Beatles, Grateful Dead). My commentary is often humorous rather than pedantic. Enjoy the Sound Experience!

My readings and books come to me and cover all faiths and philosophies from the Dalai Lama to Yoga for Chickens (visualize meditating standing on one leg, chicken-style - Tree pose for those in the know).
