in 1970, I was just a disabled college student in San bernardino . For some reason I was reading books about experimental theater. It would be years before I would actually perform and direct. The RSVP cycles; creative processes in the human environment by Lawrence Halprin was one of the books I read at that time . it was about the creative process that he and his choreographer wife Anna developed... And really philosophical principles of how to use art /movement in physical space to activate real effect on the social reality. It was one of the books that changed /shaped my life and work!

In the eighties I actually interviewed Anna!

In Freedom,
Frank Moore
