INTERVIEW WITH WRNR'S MICHAEL BUCKLEY

WRNR Radio host Michael Buckley recently recorded an interview with Pure SEA GLASS photographer Celia Pearson and author/publisher Richard LaMotte as part of his ongoing series “Voices of the Chesapeake Bay ”. It will be aired at the end of September on his Sunday Brunch show. Look for the date here when Michael reveals it!

Richard and I were so pleased to have this opportunity. Michael Buckley has just released his own book, Voices of the Chesapeake Bay, a selection of his many interviews over the past 10 years. He is deeply interested in this region that Richard, his family and I call home and how, he says, “its history, ecology, and economy intertwine with the human soul”. CP

I am honored by this invitation to show at Cross MacKenzie Ceramic Arts in the heart of Georgetown . While we are each limited to one photograph (all that their charming small space will permit), I feel confident that the effect will be all the more powerful because of the istillation. CP
