CONVERSATIONS WITH LIVING LUMINARIES AND MAVERICKS

Living Hero gives voice to the passion and dedication of people who take a creative, courageous, and unconventional path—the heroic and visionary thinkers of our time.

From 2008 to 2013, Living Hero presented conversations with known and unknown pioneering thought leaders and scientists, whose important work often escapes public attention: social scientists, futurists, artists, educators, activists, authors and lab scientists, among them Vandana Shiva, Derrick Jensen, Gabor Maté, Riane Eisler, Ric O'Barry, Suzi Gablik, Arun Gandhi, Terry Riley, Glenn Albrecht, Jim Merkel, and Carolyn Raffensperger. Episodes were downloaded over 100,000 times, and the series aired on community radio stations WGDR/WGDH, broadcast from Goddard College in Vermont.

The transdisciplinary nature of the programming stimulates a synthesis of understanding from disparate fields of inquiry, from the work of both specialists and generalists engaged for the greater good. The interviews present cutting-edge research, visionary perspectives, and real-world solutions that inspire listeners to open their minds, take heart, and transform society.

Living Hero was a fiscally sponsored project of Fractured Atlas, supported by Public Interest grants from The Puffin Foundation in 2009 and 2010 and by contributions from listeners. In 2012, Jari Chevalier received a scholarship for advanced audio documentary training at the Center for Documentary Studies at Duke University.
