Performances
These are some highlights ......
I continue to do a lot of school and educational programs
with my intensive reading-writing-listening & speaking performances.....
The nationwide Big Read has been good for me with shows all
over the country with the books The Adventures
of Tom Sawyer, by "Mark Twain"; Treasure Island by Robert
Louis Stevenson; Call of the Wild by Jack London; and Grapes
of Wrath by John Steinbeck................
Community Concerts alsokeep me busy.
I have been doing book signings for my book
The Adventures of "Riverboat John"-Glimpses of Huntsville in the 1950's which continues to amaze me with the interest.
