Welcome to The Nonlinear Library, where we use Text-to-Speech software to convert the best writing from the Rationalist and EA communities into audio. This is: Excerpts from "A Reader's Manifesto", published by Arjun Panickssery on September 7, 2024 on LessWrong. "A Reader's Manifesto" is a July 2001 Atlantic piece by B.R. Myers that I've returned to many times. He complains about the inaccessible pretension of the highbrow literary fiction of his day. The article is mostly a long list of critiques of various quotes/passages from well-reviewed books by famous authors. It's hard to accuse him of cherry-picking since he only targets passages that reviewers singled out as unusually good. Some of his complaints are dumb but the general idea is useful: authors try to be "literary" by (1) avoiding a tightly-paced plot that could evoke "genre fiction" and (2) trying to shoot for individual standout sentences that reviewers can praise, using a shotgun approach where many of the sentences are banal or just don't make sense. Here are some excerpts of his complaints. Bolding is always mine. The "Writerly" Style He complains that critics now dismiss too much good literature as "genre" fiction. More than half a century ago popular storytellers like Christopher Isherwood and Somerset Maugham were ranked among the finest novelists of their time, and were considered no less literary, in their own way, than Virginia Woolf and James Joyce. Today any accessible, fast-moving story written in unaffected prose is deemed to be "genre fiction" - at best an excellent "read" or a "page turner," but never literature with a capital L. An author with a track record of blockbusters may find the publication of a new work treated like a pop-culture event, but most "genre" novels are lucky to get an inch in the back pages of The New York Times Book Review. The dualism of literary versus genre has all but routed the old trinity of highbrow, middlebrow, and lowbrow, which was always invoked tongue-in-cheek anyway. Writers who would once have been called middlebrow are now assigned, depending solely on their degree of verbal affectation, to either the literary or the genre camp. David Guterson is thus granted Serious Writer status for having buried a murder mystery under sonorous tautologies (Snow Falling on Cedars, 1994), while Stephen King, whose Bag of Bones (1998) is a more intellectual but less pretentious novel, is still considered to be just a very talented genre storyteller. Further, he complains that fiction is regarded as "literary" the more slow-paced, self-conscious, obscure, and "writerly" its style. The "literary" writer need not be an intellectual one. Jeering at status-conscious consumers, bandying about words like "ontological" and "nominalism," chanting Red River hokum as if it were from a lost book of the Old Testament: this is what passes for profundity in novels these days. Even the most obvious triteness is acceptable, provided it comes with a postmodern wink. What is not tolerated is a strong element of action - unless, of course, the idiom is obtrusive enough to keep suspense to a minimum. Conversely, a natural prose style can be pardoned if a novel's pace is slow enough, as was the case with Ha Jin's aptly titled Waiting, which won the National Book Award (1999) and the PEN/Faulkner Award (2000). If the new dispensation were to revive good "Mandarin" writing - to use the term coined by the British critic Cyril Connolly for the prose of writers like Virginia Woolf and James Joyce - then I would be the last to complain. But what we are getting today is a remarkably crude form of affectation: a prose so repetitive, so elementary in its syntax, and so numbing in its overuse of wordplay that it often demands less concentration than the average "genre" novel. 4 Types of Bad Prose Then he has five sections complaining about 4 different types of prose he doesn't like (in addition to the generic "literary" prose): "evocative" prose, "muscular"...

In today's episode, I'm sharing a significant update about a tough decision I've made: to shut down Highlightish, the book note software I've been passionately working on. I'll discuss the reasons behind this decision, primarily focusing on my desire to dedicate more time and resources to enriching this podcast. Expect to hear about the exciting plans I have to bring you more compelling guests and discussions. Plus, I won't leave you without a book recommendation that has deeply moved me - Snow Falling on Cedars by David Guterson.

Don't you love it when a message practically writes itself?

As faith-based creators, how are we to handle the tension between inspiration and craft?Does it honor God to create content without waiting on His direction? How can we build a sustainable business if those moments of inspiration don't gel with our deadlines? And what are we really called to do as contentpreneurs? The answer might be much simpler than you think.Tune into this episode of The Inspired Business Podcast to discover what the Bible says about inspiration from God, creating messages of hope even when we don't “feel” like it, and how to treat your calling with respect for the One who called you… and the ones He called you to serve.

In the Pacific Northwest, many of us delight in Olympic National Park, a UNESCO natural World Heritage Site, located right in Seattle's backyard. Yet the famed park is just the center of a much larger ecosystem including rivers that encompass old-growth forests, coastal expanses, and alpine peaks, all rich with biodiversity. For tens of thousands of years, humans have thrived and strived alongside this area. To tell the story of this place, award-winning poet and nature writer Tim McNulty and contributors such as Fawn Sharpe, president of the National Congress of American Indians, David Guterson, author of bestselling novel Snow Falling on Cedars, Wendy Sampson, and Seattle Times environmental reporter Lynda V. Mapes, collaborated with Braided River in a project called Salmon, Cedar, Rock & Rain. Braided River, the same organization that created the award-winning book and multimedia exhibit We are Puget Sound, is bringing awareness to the Olympic Peninsula through art and stories––stories of development, conservation, restoration, and cultural heritage, while writers from the Lower Elwha Klallam, Jamestown S'Klallam, Port Gamble S'Klallam, Makah Tribe, and Quinault Indian Nation share some of their own history and perspectives. The project, in partnership with The Mountaineers, Olympic Parks Associates, National Parks Conservation Foundation, and many more, is a diverse exploration of Olympic National Park and its surrounding peninsula. Tim McNulty is a poet, essayist, and nature writer and recipient of the Washington State Book Award and National Outdoor Book Award. David Guterson is a novelist, short story writer, poet, essayist, and journalist. He is best known for his award-winning debut novel, Snow Falling on Cedars, which won both the PEN/Faulkner Award and the American Booksellers Association Book of the Year Award. It has sold more than four million copies and was adapted as a major motion picture. He lives on Bainbridge Island near Seattle with his wife Robin and five children. Wendy Sampson is a member of the Lower Elwha Klallam Tribe (LEKT); she lives on the reservation with her family. She has been a Klallam language teacher for twenty years. Wendy has provided cultural outreach in the schools, taught after-school programs and community adult classes, and worked under various grant projects with the goals of creating tribal history and language lessons and developing tools for language learning. She is now a teacher for the Port Angeles School District offering courses in the Klallam language as well as history classes from a tribal perspective. Lynda V. Mapes is an award-winning journalist, author, and close observer of the natural world. She is the author of six books, including Orca: Shared Waters, Shared Home; Witness Tree: Seasons of Change in a Century Old Oak; and Elwha: A River Reborn. Lynda lives in Seattle where she covers nature, the environment, and tribes as a staff reporter for The Seattle Times.

I recorded this on my recent three night snow camping trip near Moosehead Creek in Shasta-Trinity National Forest, Shasta County, California. I made my campsite by digging a pit in the snow and building short walls around it, which I then covered with a nylon tarp. On the final night of my trip, graupel showers started falling, then transitioned to snow. This episode consists of two recordings I made in my campsite under the tarp that night, the first part is a heavy graupel shower that passed through, the second part is a snow shower with a little graupel mixed in for a bit, then ends with steady snowfall. Each part is about seventeen minutes long, and I faded them together for a seamless transition. You might be wondering, what is graupel? Graupel is formed when snowflakes pass through supercooled water droplets as they fall. The supercooled water droplets freeze on contact, and then accumulate on the snowflake as they fall and become very tiny snowballs. Graupel is sometimes referred to as soft hail, and it falls much faster than snow, which is why it makes so much noise when it hits the tarp. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/soundbynature/support

Welcome to The B-Side, from The Film Stage. Here we talk about movie stars! Not the movies that made them famous or kept them famous, but the ones they made in between. And today we talk about Handsome Hawke himself - Ethan Hawke! The multi-hyphenate has made a career out of B-Sides, and today we choose four: Great Expectations, Snow Falling on Cedars, Tape, and Predestination. Dan and Conor are lucky to have the great Luke Hicks along for the ride. We discuss the early films of Hawke, the hotness of “Shark Hunter Hawke” in Great Expectations, his movie star run in the late ‘90s and early ‘00s, and his diverse pivot into character work up to and including the present. There's also talk of Hawke's directorial career, some debate over is the deliberate pace of Snow Falling on Cedars actually works, and this in-depth piece on Predestination. Be sure to give us a follow on Twitter and Facebook at @TFSBSide. Also enter our giveaways, get access to our private Slack channel, and support new episodes by becoming a Patreon contributor.

Welcome back to the Rock 'n Roll Ghost Podcast. On this week's episode, the Ghost speaks with filmmaker S.J. Chiro about her new film, East of the Mountains, starring Tom Skerritt (Top Gun, Alien). The film was adapted by Thane Swigart, from David Guterson's (Snow Falling on Cedars) novel of the same name. Chiro discusses the path that led her to the film, location shooting in Washington state, working with Skerritt (in what is officially his first lead role in his long and illustrious career) and co-stars Mira Sorvino and Annie Gonzalez, as well as wrapping the film up during Covid lockdown. Chiro also touches on her first film, Lane 1974, which starred Katherine Moennig (The L Word, Ray Donovan). East of the Mountains is having a small theatrical run and can also be found via video on demand (see links below). Lane 1974 is also available on video. Links: S.J. Chiro on Instagram S.J.

Award-winning producer Jane Charles talks about aging, dying, and finding new life in her 2021 film East of the Mountains (based on the novel by David Guterson, author of Snow Falling on Cedars). East of the Mountains is the story of Dr. Ben Givens, a retired heart surgeon and recent widower who learns he has terminal cancer, and his journey back to the beauty and connection of life. “I always believe when you're telling a story, you end up living the journey of that film…You live the journey and when you finish the film, it's like giving birth to all those stories and emotions that you went through but we're changed by the art and the stories that we tell.” --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app

Island Theatre cofounders Kate Meyers and Steve Stolee discuss the origins and history of Island Theatre, the company's evolution from a more-or-less conventional community theater, to finding a niche with a small room, on-book performances, and the annual Ten Minute Play Festival. Friends for nearly forty years, Steve and Kate will also share stories of the local theatre scene in the eighties, including their first exposure to the community, the Susie Glass Burdick production of Grease, and how it led to an international musical theatre collaboration with a theatre company in Siberia. ABOUT ISLAND THEATRE Incorporated in 1994, Island Theatre is a 501(c)3 non-profit community theater company in Bainbridge Island, Washington. Specializing in theatrical presentations mainly by and for adults, it has three main performing components: Island Theatre At The Library, a bi-monthly series of on-book performances at the Bainbridge Library; Island Theatre At Your House (YoHo), a bi-monthly series of open play readings hosted in private homes; and Island Theatre Ten-Minute Play Festival, an annual juried short play invitational and presentation of selected plays held at Bainbridge Performing Arts. KATE MEYERS Kate received her B.A. in Theatre from Washington State University and first set foot on BPA’s stage almost 35 years ago. Kate cherishes the many roles she has played at BPA since then, from backstage crew to actor, board member (co-chairing the initial Capital Campaign to build BPA’s playhouse), and Director. Onstage, Kate has played roles in Grease, Marvin’s Room, Blithe Spirit, The Butler Did It, and You Can’t Take it With You. Her directing credits at BPA have ranged from the classical (Romeo and Juliet, Much Ado About Nothing) to comedic (Art; Picasso at the Lapin Agile), dramatic (The Kentucky Cycle, Snow Falling on Cedars, The Grapes of Wrath, Amadeus, Arcadia), and – more recently – to contemporary “dramedies” (The Revolutionists, August: Osage County). Kate’s plays often take deep dives into the human condition, examining history, culture, and the importance of family. Several have contemplated art and the nature of artistic genius, as well as quantum physics, and even time travel. STEVE STOLEE Steve Stolee is a freelance photographer, videographer, graphic designer, Bainbridge Islander since 1979, and a BFA from U.W. School of Art. He is a cofounder of Island Theatre and managing Director of the I.T. Ten-Minute Play Festival; a 2019 recipient of the Island Treasure Award for Arts and Humanities, cofounder of The Picture Project, and creator of the documentary film, “Another Man’s Treasure,” a story about the biggest rummage sale in the world. An honest man and a hell of a nice guy, he proudly claims to have danced with the great Cloris Leachman at the Port Townsend Film Festival.
Intro.(1:21) - Start of interview(2:07) - David's "origin story."(3:42) - His take on lawyers pursuing "non-traditional" careers. "I think that ESG as a career path is going to explode. This is only the beginning."(5:04) - Paul Weiss' Sustainability & ESG Advisory Practice Group.(9:02) - How did "ESG" become a core topic of corporate governance? "There has been tremendous pressure on organizations to perform better, to be better corporate citizens." "It coalesced gravitationally in large part because of social media." "The investment community needed an organizing force."(16:22) - His take on the "purpose of the corporation" debate (shareholder capitalism vs stakeholder capitalism). "Companies are being held to account for their promises and obligations." "You can't make empty statements anymore." "The pressure shift is severe from a reputational risk." "I don't know of a non-financial consequence at a corporation, everything has a financial consequence." "We need to bring the legal community up to speed to where the business community is." "I call this phenomenon the Super Law: How ethical obligations can shape business and your practice."(22:28) - His take on board diversity. "It's the best example of Super Law." "The genie is out of the bottle on this issue." Nasdaq diversity proposal to the SEC. "One of the dirty little secrets of ESG is that the numbers are not audited, for the most part." "This will be the decade of reckoning... companies will be re-reporting."(30:08) - His take on the roundtables that he's led for the past 20 years (started when he was at Thomson Reuters, FiscalNote, etc). The idea is to convene cross-functional people to talk off-the-record about issues in a real way (private settings). In ESG, every company according to the FT can both a sinner and a saint.(37:13) - His take on the Biden's Administration approach to ESG. Re-signed to Paris Accord (climate change is key) and will deal with a lot of the "S" in the ESG. The EU and UK regulators have been active, and have been regulating US companies. He counsels clients that they have to own ESG programs (consistent policies and procedures).(42:39) - His parting thoughts for directors on ESG matters: 1) Education (learn non-legal components of ESG), 2) They can't rely on D&O insurance in this era. Board members are working really hard now. They can't just rely on management on these matters.(46:55) - His favorite books:Snow Falling on Cedars, by David Guterson (1995)Wherever You Go, There You Are, by Jon Kabat-Zinn (1994)Any book by Robert Caro ("a master at understanding power")(49:02) - His mentors:Brad Karp (Chairman of Paul Weiss) "a true beacon of the legal profession""I take the good and leave the rest from anybody I know" "I've learned some the best things in my life from some of the worst people that I've encountered."(51:22) - His favorite quotes:"You can't plan for the future until you predict the present" (everybody wants to move forward, very few people want to do the hard work of self-evaluation -- where you are now relative where you should be)"That's arrogance without portfolio" (in reference to arrogant people!)(53:21) - His "unusual habit": "open to everything and attached to nothing." You should be open to experiences that you don't think will help you. Example: he's a professional chocolate taster.(55:09) - Which living person does he most admire: As a group, healthcare and essential workers.David Curran is Chief Sustainability and Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) Officer at Paul, Weiss. In this role, Dave has dual responsibilities – to work with the firm’s lawyers to lead its Sustainability and ESG Advisory Practice Group, and also to develop and promote the firm’s internal ESG practices.Dave is a recognized leader in helping complex organizations build resilience. In addition to his work in the ESG space, he has more than 30 years of experience in legal, technology, compliance, risk and ethics roles. Dave has led many popular Thought Leadership conversations with senior executives on a variety of topics where business and technology intersect with the legal, compliance and risk ecosystems, including Transforming Law, Big Data, #MeToo and many others.Dave serves as co-chair of the New York State Bar Association’s ESG Committee, which aims to educate and engage New York lawyers, law students and faculty on ESG practices and developments through thought leadership and robust educational programs.If you like this show, please consider subscribing, leaving a review or sharing this podcast on social media. __Follow Evan on:Twitter @evanepsteinSubstack https://evanepstein.substack.com/Music/Soundtrack (found via Free Music Archive): Seeing The Future by Dexter Britain is licensed under a Attribution-Noncommercial-Share Alike 3.0 United States License
“You must have a silver penny, To get into Fairyland…” Really? I’m not so sure. The Faerie have a very curious relationship with money, or the thing we call money. Did you know the Good People are known to give us money? They are also known to tease, taunt and test us using money. Through true tales, we discover the Faerie don’t take money as seriously as we do. For Them it is of no greater value than (and easily exchanged for) leaves or dirt. It’s just possible that their attitude toward cash currency could teach us how to live simpler, more meaningful lives. How?

Richard Jenkins and Face2Face host David Peck talk about his delightful new film The Last Shift, simplicity, connecting with a script, context and complications, emotional intelligence, and why there are no magic endings.TrailerWatch the film on Google Play, YouTube and Amazon Prime.Synopsis:Stanley (Richard Jenkins), an aging fast-food worker, plans to call it quits after 38 years on the graveyard shift at Oscar’s Chicken and Fish. His last weekend takes a turn while training his replacement, Jevon (Shane Paul McGhie), a talented but stalled young writer whose provocative politics keep landing him in trouble.These two who share little in common are brought together through circumstance. Stanley, a high school dropout who has watched his life pass by his drive-through window, proudly details the nuances of the job. While Jevon, a columnist who’s too smart to be flipping patties, contends their labor is being exploited. A flicker of camaraderie sparks during the long overnight hours in a quiet kitchen.About Richard Jenkins:Born in DeKalb, Illinois, Richard Jenkins has built up an impressive list of credits since he began working as an actor in 1980. Yet with all his credits, Jenkins has remained strictly in supporting roles. After his first feature film, the sci-fi drama The Falls, Jenkins landed work in a number of TV movies. In 1985 he returned to features, landing small roles in various films such as Silverado, Witches of Eastwick and Little Nikita.From 1985 to 1994, Jenkins found television more profitable, and spent most of his time working in mini-series and television movies. It was in this arena that he finally found starring roles in films such as Into Thin Air: Death on Everest, And the Band Played On and The Boys Next Door.This led to supporting roles in various large budget films such as Flirting with Disaster, Absolute Power, There’s Something About Mary, The Mod Squad, Flirting with Disaster, Snow Falling on Cedars, Random Hearts, Me Myself and Irene and Say It Isn’t So.In 2001 he landed the recurring role of Nate Fisher, Sr. in HBO's television series Six Feet Under. He continues to appear in major motion pictures such as The Cores with Hilary Swank, Shall We Dance with Richard Gere, North Country with Charlize Theron and The Cabin in the Woods with Chris Hemsworth.More recently, he's played roles in Darling Companion alongside Diane Keaton and Kevin Kline, Killing Them Softly, co-starring Brad Pitt, Ray Liotta and James Gandolfini and in Jack Reacher opposite Tom Cruise.In 2009, he received his first Academy Award nomination, for his work in The Visitor. He received his second for The Shape of Water, in the Supporting Actor category, in addition to a Golden Globe nomination.Prior to the start of the coronavirus pandemic, he completed the starring role in the feature film The Last Shift, about a fast-food worker who's finally retiring and has to train his young replacement.(With credit to tribute.ca)Image Copyright and Credit: Sony Pictures.F2F Music and Image Copyright: David Peck and Face2Face.

This was recorded in a dense forest the morning after the first measurable snowfall of the year beneath massive, towering Sugar Pine trees and other native conifers in the Shasta-Trinity National Forest, Siskiyou County, California. As the sun hit the treetops above, it warmed the snow laden foliage, which loosened it's icy grip and sent it's load cascading into the branches below and onto the snow covered forest floor.

I was thinking about Growing Pains on this walk--the old TV show. I was thinking about how the dad, Jason Seaver (Alan Thicke), worked at home; he was a psychologist with a private practice in an office right off the family living room. (Horrendous home-office placement, particularly in a family with three loud, wise-cracking kids, but I digress.) I'd never before seen a dad who worked at home. None of the actual dads I knew, in real life, worked at home. They all drove away in the mornings to be middle-men, or lawyers or "sell components" I can't claim that sifting through these memories of Jason Seaver as I walked through the woods birthed any great epiphanies or insights. It's just, some thirty-five years later, I'm a dad who works at home myself. And on days like this--a snow day, when my daughters are off from school, rambunctiously skipping back and forth from the neighbors, making snow angels and sledding, and I'm up in my office over the garage, yapping on the phone with book publicity people and typing (always typing)--I feel grateful to be a dad who works at home: grateful to be here, looking down on them from my peculiar perch, and taking a break to share hot cocoa, share the burden, share in the laughter and love. Rain or shine. All the time. This week's walk is sponsored by Sean Sullivan, who thinks you'll like The Monolith, a short documentary by Rosie Walunas. You can see it here.
Imperfect and unpolished meditations for people who live in the world with other people. From my experience with teaching meditation, trying to make everything perfect makes it harder for people to meditate. Learning to deal with unexpected sounds and imperfect experiences leads to a better meditation journey. Welcome to my unpolished podcast.
What good have you done lately? This is a question Cameron Madill thinks about a lot. With that thought, he's built an agency that oozes with corporate good. But this wasn't at a cost. Not in the longterm anyway. In fact, since then, he's doubled his business. Is this what you get when you take a kid from Portland, send him to Stanford to get a degree in physics and have him start an agency with his dad? Nah. It's more complex than that. Cameron Madill's a deep thinker. A learner according to one personality test. And an all-around good guy who has genuine give a damn written all over him. It's paid off. And my bet is it will continue to pay dividends for his people, his pocket and our planet for a long time.

Honestly, this was a kind of difficult movie to talk about. We're used to joking about Ethan Hawke's artsy lines and romances gone wrong, but this week we had the task of discussing Snow Falling on Cedars, a movie which takes place during World War II and focuses a lot around the discrimination against Japanese Americans in the U.S. before, during, and after WWII. Of course, Ethan Hawke still falls in love, but it was definitely a different kind of movie from the ones we've discussed before. We're joined by the wonderful Alex Button (@_abutton, Double Trouble Feature) who shares with us her belief that birds aren't real - truly a shocking twist on a show where we regularly share "Hawk Facts."
Literary adaptation Awards Bait is a clear part of any year in films legacy, so this week Phil and Kenny discuss Snow Falling on Cedars, the Ethan Hawke vehicle about a town wrestling with a racially charged murder, information I assume you are all learning now because it effectively doesn’t exist. “

Ethan's in love! Our guests Elizabeth Hopkins and Dan Levine join the Cast to talk the period drama Snow Falling on Cedars. We discuss the ambitious but distracting directing, the lack of films about internment camps, and just good old fashioned romance! Bring some strawberries. That's a reference you'll get when you listen.
In this 25-minute podcast, four top leaders of Bainbridge Performing Arts (BPA) -- the Board President, Executive Director, Production Manager, and Education Director -- tell us about all the pieces that fit together for a main stage production. And they share some of the surprising ins and outs -- the fun and the gritty challenges -- of one of the most successful and enterprising community theaters in the northwest. It's now celebrating its 60th year. Ever wonder how they do it? How do they put on a show - sometimes a complex show - with actors, dancers, singers, a musical ensemble (on stage), with sets that spin around and become something altogether different? BCB's Channie Peters has a fascinating conversation with BPA Board President Debbie MacLeod, Executive Director Dominique Cantwell, Production Manager Deirdre Hadlock, and Education Director Liz Ellis. They cover a wide range of topics, from BPA's mission ... to how those sets are conceived and created ... to how the theatre school does much more to nurture the whole youngster than just teaching acting skills. On any afternoon or evening, the lights are on and there is much activity in the BPA theatre stage, rehearsal rooms and double-wide trailers behind the building. In addition to rehearsing for the next production, to building the sets and making the costumes for the next production, BPA's theatre school is probably in session for kids from 4 years old to 18. Here, actors, directors and volunteers find a strong sense of community, much fun and laughter, and also a supportive learning environment. If you've ever attended the best of community theatre here on Bainbridge Island, you've probably wondered how they can produce superb shows with the variety of Amadeus (having a live musical ensemble on stage), Little Mermaid (with actors “swimming” on stage), Snow Falling on Cedars, Hair, The Kentucky Cycle (6 hours of gripping drama), and Grapes of Wrath. This is the podcast that gives us a good sense of what's involved, and how you can get involved in a theater adventure that represents thousands of hours of community volunteer involvement each year.

Listen in on Kate Carruthers' fascinating conversation with BCB host Channie Peters. You'll hear about Kate's love for theatre, which has been a strong thread throughout her life, even during her very successful career as an attorney and Bainbridge Island's municipal judge. Theatre has been Kate's first love since her first high school play and her years majoring in theatre in college. Her intention to continue theatre arts in graduate school was sidetracked by the need to embark on a career that would support herself and two young daughters. She describes her choice of a legal career, and how she found legal practice to be similar, and yet complementary, to her love for staging plays. How does an aspiring actor/director decide to make a career as an attorney, partner in a prestigious Seattle law firm, lead a private practice here on Bainbridge, and later serve as our municipal judge? Throughout it all, Kate found time to raise two daughters, start a theatre company, and direct many noteworthy plays for Bainbridge Performing Arts. Her credits are many and varied. A few are: "The Kentucky Cycle", "Philadelphia Story", "Snow Falling on Cedars", "Amadeus", and "Much Ado About Nothing" (performed outdoors at the Bloedel Reserve). This podcast will enable you to hear how, in Kate's life, theater has provided deep meaning and a vehicle for artistic expression. No wonder she is being honored by Arts and Humanities Bainbridge as one of this year's two Island Treasures. The annual tradition of recognizing two exceptional contributors to local arts are humanities dates back to the year 2000. The Island Treasure Award ceremony will be Saturday February 18 at the Bainbridge Island Museum of Art. It begins with wine and hors d'oeuvres at 6:15 pm, with the awards ceremony at 6:40 and a reception at 7:30. Tickets can be purchased at Brown Paper Tickets online here. Seating is very limited. For further information or to reserve by phone, call 206-842-1246. Credits: BCB host: Channie Peters; BCB audio editor and social media publisher: Barry Peters. Photo credit: Cynthia Sears.

Director Kate Carruthers has brought some extraordinary productions to the BPA stage in recent years, most notably her ambitious undertaking of the nine plays of The Kentucky Cycle and last year's Snow Falling on Cedars. But this year she's outdone herself; together with Music Director Josh Anderson she is staging Peter Shaffer's magnificent Amadeus, complete with period costumes, a live chamber group, and a choral ensemble. First written in 1979 by Peter Shaffer, Amadeus was revised six times over the following 21 years, including a version for the 1984 movie. Over these six revisions, the play moved from a simple melodrama to become the heart-wrenching tragedy of Antonio Salieri. The established composer in the court of the Austrian Emperor Josef, Salieri has given himself to God so that he might realize his sole ambition to be a great composer. Enter Mozart -- a foul-mouthed, graceless oaf who composes rapturously beautiful music with a genius far beyond Salieri's envious grasp. For Salieri, the realization of his own relative mediocrity despite his sacrifices becomes more than he can bear, and he hatches a complex plot to gain ultimate revenge over Mozart and God. The final revision of Amadeus has been performed many times in the US and Europe, but only rarely with the music of Mozart -- which Shaffer considers to be the third character in this play -- performed live by a chamber group and choral ensemble. In this podcast, Kate Carruthers and Josh Anderson explain to BCB host Channie Peters how they are working together to weave the passionate words of this extraordinary play with the sublime music of Mozart. This special BPA production, they tell us, has become possible only because of the exceptional musical talent and skill of Jon Brenner, who has arranged the music to accommodate the smaller number of musicians and singers who will be part of the performance. The production is also considerably enhanced by the period costume designs of Barbara Klingberg, a successful architect who has designed costumes for Broadway shows and movies. Because this production is not a musical, but a play with music, the challenge of directing the acting, singing and orchestration will be complex. But if anyone can pull that off, we're sure Kate and Josh are up to the task -- and their vision of the end result in this podcast sounds exhilarating! You won't want to miss this extraordinary show: Amadeus opens Friday, March 11 and will run Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays through March 26th at Bainbridge Performing Arts. Tickets are on sale now at the BPA website or by visiting or calling (206-842-8569) the BPA box office.

From BCB... http://bestofbcb.org/wu-137-kay-sakai-nakao-movie-april-25/ At 9 am on Saturday April 25 at the Community Center, the final stage of our two-month reflection on the Japanese Exclusion will occur as Island filmmaker Cameron Snow unveils her movie about the life of community member Kay Sakai Nakao. This wrenchingly honest movie begins by chronicling Kay's pre-war experience during the first 22 years of her life here on the island. It then examines her internment at an American concentration camp, and follows her return to Bainbridge Island. After the movie there will be a post-film discussion led by Professor David Schulz, co-author of The Rhetoric of Agitation and Control. Professor Schulz chairs the Communication Department at Trinity Lutheran College in Everett, WA, and his discussion will focus on how communal memory is formed, how it is vulnerable to manipulation, and finally, how it can be restored to reflect a more accurate, objective truth. It is hoped that through this thoughtful “summary conversation” to the Snow Falling on Cedars community activities our attention will turn toward what lessons we have learned and how we, as a community, can move gracefully forward from this point. Doors will open for this free event at 8:45, Saturday, April 25. Movie begins at 9 am, No reservation required. Complimentary popcorn included!! For more information, call 206 842-1616 or visit www.biparks.org. Credits: BCB Host, audio tech, and audio editor Joanna Pyle; assistant audio editor Chris Walker; BCB publisher Diane Walker.
From BCB... http://bestofbcb.org/spec-003-david-gutersons-march-2015-address/ In this podcast, the third in our new series of BCB Bainbridge Island specials, we offer award-winning local author David Guterson's reflections on the writing of Snow Falling on Cedars, from a talk delivered at Bainbridge Performing Arts on March 22nd, 2015. This talk is introduced by Kate Carruthers, Director of BPA's Book-It Theater production of Snow Falling on Cedars. As part of their March presentation of Snow Falling on Cedars, Bainbridge Performing Arts invited Guterson to give a special presentation prior to a matinee performance of the play. Reading Snow Falling on Cedars twenty years later, its author encountered an unexpected mixture of emotions. In this talk he shared these, along with his thoughts on the influences, ideals, and ambitions that led to its writing and what the book means to him now. It took Guterson five years to write Snow Falling on Cedars, in part because he was teaching full time at Bainbridge High School, and in part because of the extensive research he did on salmon fishing, strawberry farming and the internment. To describe the anti-Japanese hysteria that prevailed in the 1940's, he steeped himself in about 600 pages of oral histories compiled by elderly internees for the Bainbridge Island Japanese-American Community Association. And while the fictitious San Piedro Island of Snow Falling on Cedars drifts at some distance from Bainbridge -- on a real map of Puget Sound it would lie in the San Juan Islands -- it is populated by some authentic Bainbridge characters. The literary model for the book, however, was more remote -- Harper Lee's To Kill a Mockingbird, the 1960 novel Guterson regularly assigned to his high school English classes. Guterson, then 39, received the 1995 PEN/Faulkner Award for Snow Falling on Cedars – a remarkable achievement for a first novel. Even more remarkable was the fact that it went on to be not only a critical but also a commercial success: with over four millions copies sold, it has generated a Hollywood film, a stage play, and countless high school student essays. Ironically, it is his novel that is now showing up in high school curricula – if it hasn't been banned. Listen here to hear Guterson's reflections as he looks back 20-30 years at the young man who wrote his book and how it all came to be.

In this podcast, Clarence Moriwaki, who is the president of the Bainbridge Island Japanese American Exclusion Memorial Association, describes the upcoming March 30 anniversary commemoration at the Exclusion Memorial. Clarence, Japanese Americans residents, the Interfaith Council, government officials and many community members and nonprofits have worked 14 years to create and develop the Memorial. The day marks the 73rd anniversary of the tragic day in March 1942 when more than 200 Japanese American residents of Bainbridge were forced under military guard to leave their homes and lands behind. Bainbridge was the first west coast community to suffer from the forced exclusion of Japanese Americans at a time marked by wartime fear and shock over Pearl Harbor. This year, the theme of the day is "Service and Community." To show community solidarity, the public is invited to come to the Memorial in work clothes as early as 9am to pull weeds and generally improve the look of the grounds. Then, 11am will mark the time when the troops forced Japanese Americans onto a waiting ferry that took them to trains and trucks that eventually led to internment camps. Our local US Congressman Derek Kilmer plans to attend the event to pay his respects. He recently obtained an act of Congress to add the word "Exclusion" to the official name of the Memorial. The event is scheduled to end at 1pm. See other BCB podcasts on several community and theater events that are currently commemorating the painful lessons of the Exclusion, such as "Snow Falling on Cedars", "Dear Editor: Letters to the Bainbridge Review", and interviews with Donna Harui and Lilly Kodama.

The 1994 best-selling novel by Bainbridge author, David Guterson, about the beginning of the Japanese exclusion in 1942 on Bainbridge Island, has been adapted for theatre. (It had previously been adapted to film in the 1990s.) The theatre production will be performed at Bainbridge Performing Arts from March 13 to March 29. In this podcast, director Kate Carruthers talks about the challenges and excitement in bringing this historically based novel to the stage. The story takes place on Bainbridge Island, with characters that actually lived through this period in our community's history. In this interview, Kate tells us about how many community organizations and schools are using this production as an opportunity to learn more about Bainbridge Island's unique history during this period through numerous events before and during the production's three-week run. David Guterson will be speaking informally before the Sunday, March 22nd matinee performance. After the Sunday matinee performances, cast members and Bainbridge Islanders who lived through this period on Bainbridge and in interment camps will also speak informally. Tickets are on sale now at the Bainbridge Performing Arts (BPA) website. Credits: BCB post: Channie Peters; BCB audio editor, Tim Bird; BCB social media publisher, Barry Peters.
