2007-08 Fulbright fellowship in Sofia Bulgaria. My project included a lecturer/research grant studying the legends, history and culture of Orpheus, the Thracian
I was assigned to teach and research out of the National Academy of Art in Sofia, Bulgaria
The work created for my personal research was powerful and mysterious as I gained insight into the depth of the folk character Orpheus and his influence in bulgarian culture and history. The stories are amazing and steeped in wonderful lore.
