Gary Friedman

“My musical education started with piano at age 5. I also played trumpet in junior high and high school and studied organ and music theory during teen age. Playing and improvising on the piano only occasionally during adulthood, I returned to music seriously at age 54, studying oboe and English horn with Janet Popesco Archibald. I currently play these instruments in the College of Marin Symphony, the Lucas Valley Chamber Orchestra, the Bohemian Club Band and a woodwind quintet and octet.

I have served on the Board of Directors of Chamber Musicians of Northern California. Starting at age 64, I studied composition with Alexis Alrich in the Adult Extension Division of the San Francisco Conservatory of Music. My musical works and their availability are described in this web site. I have been grateful and fortunate to have the honor of performances of several of my compositions by community orchestras and various chamber groups and by professional musicians at my 70th and 80th birthday parties.”

Bay Area Peacekeepers

Our mission at Bay Area Peacekeepers is to begin the rebuilding process at the grassroots level, helping area children cope with all manner of trauma to become who they are meant to be. Throughout history, the most effective reconstruction efforts begin not with bricks and mortar but hearts and minds. Our mission, as we see it, is showing area youths that just because the terrain is treacherous does not mean it is unnavigable. All they need is hope, a workable plan, and some good friends.

Winston Burton

“The difficulty in working with so many different interests lies in not being categorized as one dimensional; being able to interact with various elements of the community, and not being identified as being solely aligned to any one camp, while still stating my purpose.”
