I will have the opportunity to interview LIN-MANUEL MIRANDA - composer-lyricist for “In the Heights”. Growing up in Manhattan’s vibrant Washington Heights area offered him the chance to be inspired as a writer and composer. We will talk about his Broadway hit and what it has meant to him.
This Fantastic Struggle
I will also talk to author Lisa Miles about her book This Fantastic Struggle: The Life & Art of Esther Phillips. A heartwarming story of friendship sustained by the power of a now-extinct literary tradition-- keeping alive not just friends over distance & illness, but art work otherwise lost to the world . Her website details her credentials of twenty years in the above fields, including grants national, statewide and locally. www.lisamilesviolin.com.
