The Girl in the Kent State Photo In 1970, an image of a dead protester at Kent State became iconic. But what happened to the 14-year-old kneeling next to him?

Summons
by Aurora Levins Morales

Last night I dreamed
ten thousand grandmothers
from the twelve hundred corners of the earth
walked out into the gap
one breath deep
between the bullet and the flesh
between the bomb and the family.

They told me we cannot wait for
governments.
There are no peacekeepers boarding planes.
There are no leaders who dare to say
every life is precious, so it will have to be us.

They said we will cup our hands around each heart.
We will sing the earth’s song, the song of water,
a song so beautiful that vengeance will turn to weeping.
The mourners will embrace, and grief replace every impulse toward harm.

Ten thousand is not enough, they said,
so, we have sent this dream, like a flock of doves
into the sleep of the world. Wake up. Put on your shoes.
You who are reading this, I am bringing bandages and a bag of scented guavas from my trees.
I think I remember the tune.
Meet me at the corner.
Let’s go.

Go into the arts. I'm not kidding. The arts are not a way to make a living. They are a very human way of making life more bearable. Practicing an art, no matter how well or badly, is a way to make your soul grow, for heaven's sake. Sing in the shower. Dance to the radio. Tell stories. Write a poem to a friend, even a lousy poem. Do it as well as you possibly can. You will get an enormous reward. You will have created something. ~Kurt Vonnegut

Lightly, go lightly.

"It’s dark because you are trying too hard. Lightly child, lightly. Learn to do everything lightly. Yes, feel lightly even though you’re feeling deeply. Just lightly let things happen and lightly cope with them. I was so preposterously serious in those days… Lightly, lightly – it’s the best advice ever given me…So throw away your baggage and go forward. There are quicksands all about you, sucking at your feet, trying to suck you down into fear and self-pity and despair. That’s why you must walk so lightly. Lightly my darling…"

Today!

The opening night of A PERFECT GANESH was upon us! A slew of props and the 24' exterior theatre banner had arrived. The energy and anticipation were high! These playful BTS photos followed.

Over a year later, I reached out for a recommendation. Thank you, David, for a great experience!

David wrote: "It was my absolute pleasure to work with Anne Borrell, who was the graphic designer on my production of Terrance McNally's play, A PERFECT GANESH, which was performed in Los Angeles in the fall of 2021.

"Anne and I worked closely together for a number of months and I found her to be a delight. She designed the logo for my production company, Campus Cabaret, and the artwork for the play, which was then used for the poster, program, and digital media marketing. In addition, she also designed props for the production which required graphic design.

"Anne was consistently available and quick to respond to my multiple requests by phone, email, or text. And she was endlessly patient with my ever-changing ideas! The play was put on between two variant spikes in the pandemic and consequently was subject to a number of changes in the schedule, but Anne remained flexible and quick to adapt to new timetables.

"She was very easy to collaborate with and could explain ideas about graphic design to me in a way that I could work with. I felt heard and even when time was in short supply, she remained upbeat, steady, and ready with new possibilities.

"She even collaborated with my print shop to facilitate the production of materials, which made things proceed much more smoothly. I'm delighted to endorse her talent, expertise, and professionalism and I can't wait to work with her again on another project."

– David W. Callander, Artistic Director, Campus Cabaret, Los Angeles, CA
