Presentation info

This is an example of what I do when I give presentations at colleges. Each school comes up with its own approach -- panels, discussion groups, questions and answers afterward. I have learned a great deal on each occasion, from a host of interesting people. One panel had a college prof who survived Vietnam; he turned to art as a way to cope with his experiences. He introduced me to the Vietnam Veterans Art Museum in Chicago. Another panel had a photographer whose brother had come home from VN only to commit suicide some time later. Her photography is an attempt to understand.....Another session included a talk by a woman who was fourteen and in the Middle East when bombs were blowing up outside her home....
I look forward to the GA College event.
