As an educator, author, performing poet and musician it has been my pleasure to share works from my book, The 8 O'Clock Bell - along with its original accompanying music - in over 200 schools, in the theatre, and for a multitude of special events for educators, students and the general public. Within the Reviews you will find conference presidents, superintendents, teachers, students, stage directors, media specialists, principals and so many more who will be delighted to share with you their experiences of this performance.
All performance, book and music profits go to The Harvard University Stem Cell Institute to put an end to Muscular Dystrophy. Read more about it here in Harvard's Newsletter.
