I am the founder and owner of PivotPointe Media Group in San Diego, California, a creativity-based, socially- and environmentally-active publishing, production, and training company. Among other things, I'm the creator and co-author of "The Backstage Gourmet Cookbook: Favorite Vegetarian Recipes from the World of Music," which features recipe contributions from Dudley Moore, Dennis Weaver, Kitaro, Keiko Matsui, The Ventures, Junior Marvin (Bob Marley & the Wailers), Nancy Rumbel, Bill Ward (Black Sabbath), Mike Pinder (Moody Blues), and more. Too, I'm a veteran radio person, including hosting, producing, writing, editng, and promoting AM/FM/Internet shows. One of the eco-programs, "Global Gig...Music for the Planet," featured guests like Ed Begley, Jr., Ted Danson, Linda Blair, Rue McClanahan, Olivia Newton-John, Edward James Olmos, Richie Havens, Kirstie Alley, and Woody Harrelson and their Earth-saving efforts and campaigns. Currently I'm the host /writer/co-producer of "The Backstage Gourmet Radio Show" on HealthyLife.Net, which airs Mondays, 1- p.m. Pacific Time. Our theme is "Great green cuisine meets great global music." Victoria (Moran) was my special guest this week and was sparkling and informative. I'm also a former newspaper editor, writer, and photographer. My background/education/experience is in Community/Clinical Psychology, arts & entertainment, the environment/animals/nature, Early Childhood Education/Child Development, entrepreneurship. For over 30 years, I've worked with a variety of causes, including the environment, animal rights, and violence against girls and women. I've headed up rape/sexual assault and suicide 24-hour crisis hotlines and worked on benefit albums and concerts for VAW educational and fundraising efforts. I launched Violence Against Women: Reclaiming Your Spirit last year, based on a sourcebook by the same name I'm penning. There's a Web site going up soon at www.vawreclaimyourspirit.com, and we presented a conference in English and Spanish in November to help women and girls who have been subjected to violence move forward from victim to survivor to thriver.

Thanks, Robby. I'll check it out and get a media review copy sent out. Will let you know what I discover and think about the book. Anything else you see out there that would be good to peruse and perhaps feature on-air or in my new magazine upcoming, let me know! I greatly appreciate it. Best wishes! PJ
