Today she shares that passion with hundreds of kids every year.  This weekend she is putting on an event to bring the work of established artists like Shepard Fairey and John Lithgow to their fans to benefit art programs for children that attend LAUSD schools. The program is called STARS ALIGNED TO SAVE THE ARTS – BENEFIT TO RAISE AWARENESS OF THE IMPORTANCE OF ARTS EDUCTION FOR OUR CHILDREN.  This event hopes to protect public school arts programs from the 100% proposed cuts they face. On Saturday, June 2, 2012, from 3:00pm-6:30pm government officials and celebrities will join Los Angeles Unified School District (LAUSD) teachers, students and parents for  Save the Arts, a benefit that includes performances to resuscitate arts education.  The event will be held at the historic Coconut Grove, 3400 Wilshire Blvd., Los Angeles 90010. Listen as Suzanne vamps on all things thespianic (if that’s a word) and academic.  Enjoy 15 minutes with Suzanne and MIPtalk.com host Brad Rowe.

How are New York and other cities around the world adjusting to modern security threats?  Just ask Mitchell Silber. He sat down with The Generation co-editor Brad Rowe in UCLA’s Murphy Sculpture Garden to discuss his new book The Al Qaeda Factor, terrorist threats in the Western Hemisphere, and his inspiring personal journey from Wall Street to NYPD (which he has served for seven years).

Ruth Beaglehole’s story begins in New Zealand; born to Academic parents, with one sister and two brothers. Ruth’s childhood was “complicated”, to use her own words. Her own struggle would become Ruth’s biggest asset. Her story is triumphant, disturbing, lovely and delivered with the indomitable wry wit many have come to know her by. From her modest beginnings in the 1970s cutting her teeth on the relevant parenting and teaching issues of the day, she discovered and honed a philosophy that is changing the way we look at our children.  She has had a major impact through her work with LAUSD teachers, founding a Teen Mother Program, creating the Center for Nonviolent Education and Parenting and finally transforming her works into the center that bears the name of the neighborhood it was developed in – The Echo Parenting and Education Center. This is an interview you won’t forget.   Education, Non-Profit Brad Rowe and Noam Dromi no no http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nd/2.0/http://www.miptalk.com/ruth-beaglehole-raising-children/ Gina Bianchini – I Am Social, Hear Me Roar http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/miptalk/~3/ANU3-dnt130/ http://www.miptalk.com/gina-bianchini-social/#comments Thu, 01 Sep 2011 19:26:15 +0000 info@miptalk.com (Brad Rowe and Noam Dromi) http://www.miptalk.com/?p=1131

This week’s guest is former Ning.com CEO Gina Bianchini. I met Gina with a group of friends down in Cabo San Lucas last year.  While enjoying good Mexican food, drink, and sunsets, we got to talking about what is important in the world and what is missing from the business, political and media conversations these days. What we settled on was a realization that there is a lack of humanity and compassion in how people communicate with each other in these realms. Together with Netscape founder Marc Andreessen, Gina founded Ning, an online platform for people to create their own social networks in October 2005.   She left the company in March of 2010 to serve as an executive in residence at the Andreesen Horowitz venture firm. Some time passed and I needed to follow up with her and thought it would be great to get her on film to talk about a new business venture she is launching in Palo Alto.  I asked her why she is working literally blocks from her alma mater Stanford.  For as worldly as she is in some ways, at heart she’s a Silicon Valley girl: born and raised in the shadow of Apple in Cupertino, a Stanford girl and now ten plus years in business in Palo Alto.  It seems like she may be here to stay.  And why not?     Join MIPtalk for a conversation with one of the nicest people around and a look into one of the most brilliant entrepreneurial minds of our day. Hope you enjoy the conversation. Lots more cool stuff on the horizon this fall.

And she has a fascinating story to tell. In her new film Connected: An Autoblogography about Love, Death and Technology, she rallies audiences to participate in a “Declaration of Interdependence”  that celebrates human connection throughout time and the role that technology and social media has in shaping our future. You can see the trailer here:   Here’s what she says in her director’s statement about the film: I hope that “Connected,” will help create a global conversation about what it means to be connected in the 21st century.  I believe that by engaging people to talk about connectedness in their own lives and in the world, the ripple effect of these conversations will have far reaching impact.  Appreciating that this is a huge subject, I employ many tactics (humor, animation, archival and my own personal story) to attempt to untangle what interdependence and connectedness mean in terms of the history of the human species and moving forward. Through this journey, I wield a large magnifying glass to look at some of the absurd and beautiful behaviors of our species and our world. While the core components of humans desire to be “connected,” have not changed since we first appeared on this planet, I believe a new zeitgeist is emerging through all these new technologies that are making our world smaller and more intertwined. In Part 1 of our interview, we talk about Tiffany’s upbringing, the work of her father (the late surgeon and author Leonard Shlain), her early career as a filmmaker and how she founded the Webbys. Tiffany is an incredibly inspiring storyteller and we hope you enjoy hearing what she has to say. Check out one of her TED talks for last year: Be sure to leave your thoughts in the comments about what you do to stay connected. Stay tuned for Part 2.

Dorwan Stoddard. “Gabe” Zimmerman. But you probably know their story. On January 8, 2011, they were part of a group of roughly 30 people attending a constituent meeting called “Congress on Your Corner” being held by Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords at a Safeway supermarket in Tucson, Arizona. Shortly after 10am, 22 year old Jared Loughner approached the gathering and shot Representative Giffords in the head before firing indiscriminately at others in the crowd. Those pictured above were killed and 14 others were severely injured. Giffords survived and doctors have been very optimistic about her slow recovery. In the days after the attack, the national dialogue devolved into blame and recrimination about whether or not heated political rhetoric contributed to Loughner’s actions. When President Obama arrived in Tucson for a memorial this past week he gave an impassioned speech that reminded us of our shared humanity and implored us to do and be better so we could live up to the promise that 9-year old victim Christina Taylor Green saw in America. Photographer & Activist Ann-Eve Cunningham For our first show of 2011, we spoke to Tucson resident Ann-Eve Cunningham, a renowned photographer and activist who works for Arizona Public Media. As one of the organizers of the Christina Taylor Green memorial fund, she shares her thoughts on the events of the past week and how the community is beginning to heal.

Auras and ghosts. And he would very much like to know why. Jonas searches for answers in the powerful new documentary feature Wake Up.  Here’s a synopsis: Jonas Elrod was a 37-year-old filmmaker who enjoyed a successful career shooting commercials, music videos, and documentaries when one day, while planning his next day’s shooting schedule in a San Francisco hotel room, he began to see visions. Since that day, Elrod says he sees ghosts, demons, angels, colorful clouds of energy, and personal auras wherever he goes, and he can’t explain what is happening to him or why. Elrod and his girlfriend began looking for a reason for this phenomenon, and visited a long series of doctors, psychiatrists, and spiritual teachers, trying to determine if his visions were the product of an illness, psychosis, or a genuine spiritual apparition, and as the process went on, Elrod found he wasn’t certain if his visions were a curse or a blessing. Filmmaker Chloe Crespi (who saw ghosts as a child) began helping Elrod make a film about his experiences and his search for an answer to an almost impossible question, and Wake Up is a documentary about a man chasing a mystery and looking for answers within and outside himself. Wake Up was an official selection at the 2009 South by Southwest Film Festival. Check out the trailer here: We caught with Jonas and Chloe last month in New York.
