I have heard writers say that there is no such thing as writing, that there is only rewriting. And a lighting man I know says, "For every vision, there is an equal and opposite revision".

The story so far
- The story so farBorn into a singing family. Church choirs, school chorus, rock band, then founding Manhattan Transfer and recording and touring from 1972 - 1979. Car accident, recovery, solo career. Jazz, pop, folk, standards, bagpipe tunes, Anglican chant, Ukrainian Catholic liturgy, gospel, art songs, improvisation. Writing. And acting. And along the way, trained dogs, wrangled horses, and moved 53 times. Still learning, still growing, life is unbearably sweet and everything, everything! is holy.
