Zorn was recognized before he passed. I don't believe among today's oligarchy anyone can do that. The people Zorn painted and worked for weren't selfish criminals.

I always wanted to teach a class about history through the eyes and ears of artists and composers. History books are too filled with politicians and their wars. What did the common man really think? His thoughts are found in the works of the artists and composers of the time.

I am one who will be discovered posthumously. When America is humbled and people look inward, somebody will "discover" The Fourteeners and all that music and imagery about the reality of our mountains and the people who lived and live here. Like my love story.

Kind of a heartbreaking story in a heartbreaking life.
So many artists pay and paid this price just to express a glimpse of the world.
