Terry Withers

Terry Withers is a long-time improv comedy teacher & performer who got his start at the famed UCB Theatre in NYC. There he immersed me into the art and business of improv comedy for almost a decade. Terry Withers did this by trying out a multitude of roles, including that of student, performer, booking agent, teacher, senior manager, corporate instructor, touring show producer, and more.

More recently he created a bunch of fun shows which had wildly unprofitable runs in NYC. He didn’t lose a lot of money, it’s just that there was no chance he would ever make any money. Terry Withers even kicked off the first serious attempt at improv over video conferencing in 2014, way before the pandemic made it fashionable, with a website called E-MPROV.

After that, he took some shows on the road to colleges and regional theaters and managed to make some money! He also traveled to teach workshops and classes, worked as a consultant to regional improv theaters, and worked at corporations leading improv-based professional development workshops and events.

Terry Withers is a passionate believer in the power and beauty of improv comedy. He deeply believes the world would be a better place if everyone had done a little improv.

Myself When I Am Real

Photo by Gabriela Gomez on Unsplash

“Eclecticism is the word. Like a jazz musician who creates his own style out of the styles around him, I play by ear.”

— Ralph Ellison

In this time, in search of the dream that eludes me

I am a beat conscious, bohemian sort of sophisticated hippie

Slash 21st century griot to the core, with a fetish

For the lingua franca, because my native tongue lives in the poet tree.

In this time, I continue the struggle of wordsmiths before me

In the name of freedom of expression as a young warrior poet

With the soul of a sage inhabiting the body of an eclectic collector

Of breaks, rare grooves, and revolutions at 33 and a 3rd

(along with the aural biographies of Miles, Monk, Trane & Bird).

& in this time, I remain humble regardless of the wealth of myself

Beside me. words I manifest give meaning to the jazz

That makes seasons swing & forces unseen seem

Like footnotes to that same dream, remaining to be seen,

Though it resides in me – for I am the metaphor

Deconstructing verses from news with words

Born to be poems speaking in an idiom of individuality

That hopes to create hues both infinite and eternal

In the spaces in between these indelible blues, forever

Beckoning us back through the continuum of humanity.

Praying for Emily

The Faith, Science, and Miracles that Saved Our Daughter

by Tom Whitehead; Kari Whitehead; Emily Whitehead

FaithWords

Worthy Books

Christian

Pub Date 06 Oct 2020

I am reviewing a copy of Praying For Emily through FaithWorks/Worthy Books and Netgalley:

Tom and Karl Whitehead’s works was shattered when their five year old daughter Emily was diagnosed with Leukemia. They were going to do whatever it took to help their daughter, and as they made decisions about how to best treat her.

Tom found that his faith came to him in whispers, guiding his decisions and keeping his hope alive, while Kari placed great faith in science and the doctors surrounding her little girl. But as Emily’s condition continued to worsen, they both prayed for a miracle.

Their miracle arrived in the form of an experimental treatment called CAR-T cell therapy that, against all odds, saved Emily’s life. Due to Emily’s remarkable and miraculous recovery this treatment is now used widely to treat cancer and has gone on to save hundreds of lives and promises to help thousands more. For all the acclaim and attention this important new approach to treating cancer has received, few know the full story of all it took to make this miracle happen.

Praying for Emily is a story of belief, resilience, and support that got them through the most difficult time of their lives.

I give Praying for Emily five out of five stars!

A snapshot biography of Dr. Anandibai Joshi
By: Roman Mikhail
Tags: Biography, Medicine, History, Feminism, Nonfiction

Anandibai Joshi journeyed from India to the U.S. to pursue a medical school education in 1883. Prior to leaving, she wrote her sponsor, a wealthy woman from New Jersey who over years of correspondence had become akin to family, “You have reason to think that this very distant voyage will be hazardous for a girl of 18 because the world is full of frauds and dangers, but dear Aunt, wherever I cast my glance, I see nothing but a straight and smooth way. I fear no miseries. I shrink not at the recollection of dangers, nor do I fear them.”

This was Anandibai. Fearless. Staunch in the pursuit of her goals. By eighteen she had already overcome much. Married at the age of nine, at fourteen she endured the loss of her child ten days after giving birth. And then she spent much of her late teens in poor health, suffering from a multitude of maladies including weakness and frequent headaches.

But education was important to her. It had been for much of life. Born into a wealthy family, her father went against customs to have his daughter educated and her husband supported Anandibai’s studies as well.

In the U.S., she was admitted to and attended the Women’s Medical College. After graduating in 1886, she traveled back to India in hopes of practicing medicine there. But she became ill shortly after her return, passing away in 1887 from tuberculosis.

In Memoriam Scott Donaldson, biographer, critic, and scholar of American
By: Simply Charly
Tags: Ernest Hemingway, Biography, Scott Donaldson, F Scott Fitzgerald, Literature

Scott Donaldson

The Paris Husband, published by Simply Charly in 2018, explores one of the key events in Ernest Hemingway’s life-his first marriage to Hadley Richardson-and his years in Paris in the early 1920s.

Its author Scott Donaldson (1928–2020), who died on December 1 at his home in Scottsdale, Arizona, was well suited to pen this work.

The a uthor of 21 books and more than a hundred articles and essays, Donaldson was a prominent Hemingway scholar, widely acclaimed as one of the nation’s leading literary biographers.

He wrote eight books about 20 -century American authors, including poets Winfield Townley Scott and Archibald MacLeish, and novelist John Cheever.

But it was Hemingway and his contemporary, F. Scott Fitzgerald, who grabbed Donaldson’s attention for much of his literary career.

The fruit of this interest was a dual biography, Hemingway vs. Fitzgerald: The Rise and Fall of a Literary Friendship, for which he won the Ambassador Book Award.

In fact, the two have monopolized much of Donaldson’s time: three biographies, contributions to three volumes of criticism, and 42 articles.

In an interview he gave to the College of William & Mary, where he worked from 1966 until 1994, Donaldson explained why he devoted so much time to the two writers.

“I guess I have an identification with them because of their midwestern origins and mine,” explained Donaldson, a native of Minneapolis.

“Fitzgerald was from St. Paul. I guess I was an early worshipper of Hemingway; I did my senior thesis at Yale on him.”

Donaldson’s expertise and contributions are well recognized in the literary community.

“If there were a Mount Rushmore of Hemingway scholars, Scott Donaldson would belong,” said Mark Cirino, co-editor of Hemingway and Italy: 21st Century Perspectives and editor of the Reading Hemingway Series.

And the Hemingway Society also paid a heartfelt tribute to its former president.

Donaldson, it said, “was a great teacher and a generous mentor to generations of young Hemingway scholars.”

I am Ana Rafaela,

To Have a review about who I am I consider it a stupendous exercise so that action allows you to go back to your steps and open windows from where you can view how had been your way — then let’s talk about me.

I came from a colorful country in the Caribbean, my home town is in the border to the Caribbean sea just thirty minutes from home I could arrive at paradise’s crumb named Adicora beach, just ten minutes from home I find the desert and if I wish mountains I can find it too close from home, the small town I describe is Santa Ana de Coro a Venezuela’s town.

Born round around a diversity of landscapes, tastes, and colors made me a fully creative and nature lover person whom diversity is a good word able to describe myself.

Diversity I admire and love I begun tasting it in my early years, I remember when I was 4th years old I ask for my mom to read me the streets advice, and then she didn’t read me all I ask for, I learned to read, finding in my early ages an open world to that diversity closer as my hands can getting a book.

So, I love reading, my academic performance always rounded from excellence in my forehead, then primary school meant for me an arena where be the best was my rule — I grew up; after life’s things I went to study to a technical school after the primary school I enrolled to IT’s stuff, one of my best memory from that experience is my first Programming class, the teacher arrived at the classroom, started the class explanation, past one hour he asked who understand it and I was the unique whom raised the hand; honestly I believe I fell in love with the teacher, but the years helped me to understand my love was for the programming matter.

The experience of understanding how a problem can be split through small pieces and how it helps us to develop solutions was, and until now means for me a powerful matter; then pass years I graduated in 2012 as System Engineer.

My career had involved multiple technologies finding in the backend my favorite niche, then I developed an instinct over backend technologies being my strong skill PHP and Python languages.
Remembering Billy DeMars

The Phillies family suffered another loss on Thursday with the passing of former coach Billy DeMars.

DeMars coached for 13 years with the Phillies, serving as the hitting coach for three straight National League East title winners (1976–78) and the first World Series champions in franchise history (1980).

“Billy DeMars was the ultimate ‘baseball man,’” former Phillies broadcaster Chris Wheeler said. “That’s a guy who lives the game 24/7. Billy was a valued member of the Phillies organization as a major league coach and later as a minor league instructor.”

Phillies statement on the passing of Billy DeMars.

DeMars was a baseball lifer. The Brooklyn native was selected in the Rule 5 draft by the Philadelphia Athletics in 1947. He played a season in Philadelphia and two for the St. Louis Browns before moving into coaching.

Before coaching in the majors, DeMars spent 11 seasons as a manager in the Baltimore Orioles minor league system. One pitcher he coached was former Phillies President and General Manager, Pat Gillick.

DeMars coached under six different Phillies managers and became a player favorite. After the Phillies, he coached for the Montreal Expos and Cincinnati Reds at the request of Pete Rose.

“Pete Rose thought Billy was the best he’d ever known,” Wheeler said. “Billy was a tireless worker who always was ready to go to the batting cages and work with players.”

Phillies utility player Del Unser knew he could count on DeMars, even in the most high-stakes situations.

Just before the first pitch of the fifth and final game of the 1980 National League Championship Series at the Astrodome, Unser didn’t feel right. To shake out the nerves and break out of his funk, he wanted more work in the hitting cage, despite how close they were to starting the elimination game. He sought out DeMars.

“He said ‘What? Why do you want to do that now?’” Unser said. “He laughed, but then we went down there and got to work.”

The extra reps ended up being monumental. With new confidence, Unser came up as a pinch hitter in the eighth inning and hit an RBI single, capping a three-run comeback in the inning that chased Nolan Ryan out of the game. Unser went on to be a World Series hero as well.

“It was huge,” Unser said. “We still laugh about it years afterwards.”

DeMars retired to Clearwater, Florida. He remained close with the Phillies organization and frequently visited the Carpenter Complex to help mentor young hitters.

“We spoke last August on his 95th birthday and planned on dinner when I got to town in January,” Wheeler said. “During that conversation little had changed. He wanted to talk baseball, especially Phillies baseball.”

Small Gratitude, Big Relevance
By: Mark Haviland
Tags: Biography, Writing, True Life Story

Not long ago, I had the chance to help edit the first draft of a biographical book manuscript, written by a professional in the Midwest, who is actively in search of a publisher. As a writer and editor, I usually work on short-form articles, this was my first long form piece in many years. We had just moved during the pandemic, and I was awaiting the delayed arrival of PC. So I actually printed out the document at our, and read and edited it in longhand. I’ve been using computer technology since 1987, but there is still something special about the printed word. Also, I enjoy editing the flow of a document in long hand, but there is something almost musical about editing in cursive script. I won’t give away the plot to her true story, and the author is now a professional success. But her early days growing up were harrowing, with constant verbal and psychological abuse. Growing up, I had an alcoholic father, but we managed. But reading someone’s else story, that of a friend, was a distressing experience, that made me think for a long time about what we take for granted, and about what could be a reasonable hope for our immediate future. And I resolve to do better for my own family.
