Hello there! Thanks for stopping by. This is a page for an occasional radio show I created for 90.1 FM KPFT Houston called “Only Connect: Exploring People and Places that Make Houston Great.” It was on air for five years, from 2012-2017.

The show was thirty minutes and I chose a different interesting person to interview each time. I wanted only one person in order to maximize my interview time and stay focused. I asked each person why/how they came to Houston and then they talked about their life and, where applicable, interesting places with which they were associated.

All of my interviews are archived here, one by one, with a photo of each interviewee.

Please scroll through, take a listen, and enjoy. There are so many wonderful PEOPLE AND PLACES THAT MAKE HOUSTON GREAT!

Did you know that there are 23 million Americans in recovery? And yet, we don't know about many of them because of the anonymity requested by AA. Not everyone is willing to be open about their recovery -- and that's fine and a personal decision -- but the more people that are open, the more we can receive federal funding and get help for those that still suffer.

Enjoy my scintillating conversation from December 30, 2013 with recovery coach Suzanne Jarvis about addiction and reducing the stigma surrounding it by encouraging people to be more open about their recovery.

Here's my lovely interview on my show "Only Connect: Exploring People and Places that Make Houston Great"with Anne Wilkes Tucker, the Gus and Lyndall Wortham Curator of Photography for the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston. It really struck me when she said one of the things she learned from curating the War/Photography show was that war is in us. Very profound (and sad) indeed!
