Wise Women Media Radio Show for June 29th, 2012 (8 to 10PM EDT)-The Anti-Surrender Committee

Wise Women Media Radio Show for June 29th, 2012 (8 to 10PM EDT). Lisa Polo and Andrea Dean Van Scoyoc of the Animal/Pet Advocacy Initiative called the Anti-Surrender Committee.

ABOUT ANDREA:
Retired, multiple-time best-selling and award-winning author, Andrea Dean Van Scoyoc, can now be found filling her time with her many new projects.
ABOUT LISA:
Veterinary Client Care Representative and Passionate Animal Advocate, Lisa Polo can be found sharing and networking photos and concerns to help pets in need.

Both are Voices for the Voiceless, and are co-founders of the Anti-Surrender Committee, dedicated to helping those who have hit hard times, stay with their beloved pets.

Tonight we are interviewing two graceful, compassionate women who saw a need to help individuals and families and advocate for animals, the SILENT family members in their community. Care and food for beloved pets is a comfort for people in the wake of the multiple stresses caused by rising catastrophic financial hardships that many are experiencing now. For pet owners to know that they don't have to give up their beloved family members when things spiral downward in their lives is a source of peace and reassurance during these hard times. Listen in, call in and if you can help, please do!

Wise Women Media for 6/11/12-Cancelled due to Inclement Weather

We had a band of thunderstorms roll in during the late afternoon and I was never able to upload a page that would "stick" online, so Internet was not working and it still isn't. I am typing this at the local library. We will be back next week with another show and a new guest. Please tune in and spread the word. Also see the DONATE link for WEPAY on this page and help fund this show and keep it on the air. Every little bit helps. Truth is FREE but we need FUNDS to keep it on the airwaves! Dig deep. See you next week!

Picture taken yesterday right after the rain and close to sundown. The raindrops looked like diamonds! Picture does not do the subject matter justice!

Wise Women Media for 6/4/12--Special Guest PhotoJournalist Julie Dermansky

Julie Dermansky is a documentary photographer whose work focuses on social, environmental and political change. She is an Affiliate Scholar at the Rutgers University Center for the Study of Genocide, Conflict Resolution, and Human Rights; a Thomas J. Watson Fellow; and a recipient of an NEA grant. When not on assignment, Dermansky covers stories around the world to which she is drawn based on her regard for the significance of the event or subject.

Dermansky was born in New York City in 1966. She started her career as a sculptor and painter after getting a BFA from Tulane University in 1988. Her sculpture has been exhibited at Socrates Park in Long Island City, and the New York City Percent for Art program awarded her two commissions. Since switching from painting and sculpture to photography in 2004, her photographs have been published internationally in such publications as the Times of London, Der Spiegel, the Guardian, the New York Times, the Washington Post, Newsweek and Time magazine. She is also a regular contributor to The Atlantic’s website where she has published mutli-media stories since 2010.

Her long-term documentary projects include photographing genocide sites around the world, the Louisiana's wetlands, and natural history collections in both private and institutional settings. Her recent photography exhibitions include: “As I See It: Julie Dermansky Documents A World Of Changes,” Paul Robeson Gallery, Rutgers University, 2012;  “Haiti, After the Earthquake,” Ogden Museum, New Orleans, LA, 2011; “Memorial Sites: New York to Nairobi,” Center for Architecture, New York City, 2008; “Natural Selections,” Everhart Museum of Natural History, Science and Art, Scranton, PA, 2006; "Natural and Unnatural History" Roberson Museum and Science Center, Binghamton, NY, 2005. 

Julie’s interest in social justice started at a young age. Her parents participated in local politics, protests, and marched on Washington with Martin Luther King and raised her and her siblings in Englewood, New Jersey, one of the few multi-racial communities in Bergen County NJ, a suburb of New York City.

At a summer camp at age 11 she read Elie Wiesel’s "Night," and began to question mankind's capacity for evil.  Julie marveled at Picasso's “Guernica” at the Museum of Modern Art before she could truly understand it.  Her eye for photography was developed through “The Best of Life,” a coffee table photography book that introduced her to the power of photojournalism. Those images informed her way of looking at the world. 

In college she started as a history major but quickly recognized that art was her true calling. Antonio Guardi’s work inspired her to work large and create environments for the pubic. In the two projects for New York’s City s Percent for the arts program she created whimsical environments for children. 

In 2004 Julie gave up her studio and took off around the world with her first digital camera, working on a project that focused on museums at genocide sites. As her experience behind the camera grew her dream of becoming a photojournalist became a reality through her documentary photography.
