After a (busy) decade, I've updated my LinkedIn presence
I filled in a lot of the blank spots below. Enjoy! (Or not, that's fine too - ha!)

I am host/producer of “The Paula Gordon Show: Conversations with People at the Leading Edge”(sm). Begun in 1996 as regional radio and subsequently distributed internationally by CNN, it debuted as internet audio in ’98 and video in 2006. For the past decade, I've written for HuffingtonPost and, alongside my executive producer/husband Bill Russell, produce ‘BerleyTimes from our eco-restoration home in Kimberley, BC, where we've lived since 2011 (a much longer story).
From the late ‘80s, we two have consulted with major corporations facing profound demographic and technological challenges (based in Atlanta, GA), having sold our award-winning regional video/film production company, "Straight Furrow Productions".
I hosted WMAQ-TV/NBC's “Small World”, an Emmy® nominated weekly half-hour celebration of Chicago’s multi-ethnic communities from ‘77 to ’81, having entered broadcasting via PBS where I produced and hosted nationally distributed television programming.
An undergraduate government major, my Masters is in radio-television-mass communications from Indiana University. My service on national Boards includes Oberlin College President (Marvin Krislov)’s Advisory Council and (for 15 years) as a Trustee for the Interdenominational Theological Center comprised of six predominantly African-American denominations.

Genuinely happy you've "surfaced", Marc! So pleased, in fact, that a "private" message is on its way with lots more than this greatly appreciated site can accommodate!

Your marriage of "elegy" to "eulogy" is truly outstanding. Thank you for raising the bar for me in thinking about tributes.

EXCELLENT resource on our existentially threatening climate crisis, Dan, thanks for being so patient - your "particular" response is helpful well beyond the current circumstances calling ALL who might need further "guidance" into the reality of What's Happening (here in B.C. it is wildfires/drought/heat domes...which are becoming the new normal. Oh, and as for "disruption"! Today, May 20th, it's supposed to freeze this week, surely a death knell for the promise of pears, and delaying any "planting" beyond hopes for local "food security". Need I add "Attention Must Be Paid"? Thanks again.,

As always, Dear Norman, delighted that you are in The Club ... 75 is a FINE Club, so glad you joined it! And again, you were a HIGHLIGHT of the "50th" - I think often of our scaring the dinner crowd with rowdy laughter (ok, so Scott Schillin was a ROWD, too, ALSO good). Here's to All Good Things for you and yours!

As Dascomb's "head waiter" my sophomore year working there, you, dear Carl, taught me a LOT...trust you're persevering. It was some years ago we briefly reunited at a (presumably "cluster") reunion and I've thought fondly of you in the intervening years. New Mexico seems a GREAT place to live! Be well, glad you've joined this thingy.

Lovely to see your cause for CELEBRATING ... with so much more LIFE in you and we lucky ones! Paula

Getting even briefly -- though intensely -- acquainted with (Dr.) Nell greatly enhanced the 50th reunion for me. Sad as I am to learn of her death, I am completely confident in your (Dr.) John strength in carrying forward her loving spirit. Know that many share my hopes for peace in the knowledge of your lifetime together. Condolences and best wishes, Paula
