These are stories that are not performed live, but recorded on-location and produced like a radio story. This story was produced by Alix Blair about her friend Matthew McCue. Matt tells his story about going from a gung-ho solidier in the Iraq war to a peace-loving farmer. Visit www.farmervetco.org for info about the Farmer Veteran Coalition Project. Alix Blair works as an independent audio producer and photographer and has recently finished collaborating on a multi-year project about migrant agriculture workers in North Carolina with the Center for Documentary Studies and Student Action with Farmworkers. Currently, when not working on documentary projects, she farms with a friend on one acre of land next to the ocean. Comments[0] |
