I'm offering two new Arts-in-Education courses
If your community or school offers Arts-in-Education programs for children, teens, adults or seniors, here are two courses you might want to book:
- Telling Community Stories: Oral History and Cultural Documentation (which teaches participants to capture oral histories and community stories using the tools and techniques of cultural documentation),
and
- You've Got a Voice for Radio! (which teaches participants to produce and host radio shows).
Both courses can be categorized as Literature, Music, Theater, Visual Arts, Professional Development and meet New York State (NYS) Learning Standards I, II, III, and IV and New York City's Blueprint for Teaching and Learning in the Arts.
You can learn more about these and some other courses I teach, and access excerpts from my teaching portfolio at my teaching website.

The Lisa Tolliver Show is being rescheduled. Here's what's in the works.
In the meantime, I'm preparing programming for two other shows. Here's what's in the works.
On Wednesday, September 12 at 11:30 AM, I will host SCORE Radio: Counselors to America's Small Business.
And then throughout October, November and December 2007, I will be hosting The Big Read radio series, sponsored by the Westchester Library System. The radio series will support the National Endowment for the Arts "Big Read" initiative, for which the Westchester Library System and the Westchester Arts Council will be sponsoring two months of exciting programming. The "Big Read" radio shows will feature interviews with authors, book publishers and celebrities and readings by notable actors of Westchester County's "Big Read" book selection: Their Eyes Were Watching God
For more details about the aforementioned radio shows and my other "four-eyed" programs, visit LisaTolliver.com and click "Come See What's New."

MOVIE: My favorite line from 'Carlito's Way'
I love ironic understatements. That's why my favorite line from Carlito's Way
Pachanga (Luis Guzman): "Let's get out of here."[To Benny Blanco (John Leguizamo) after they betray and fatally ambush Carlito Brigante (Al Pacino) at Grand Central Station.]
Benny: "No, you stay here."[To Pachanga before shooting him dead, too.]
