Sonoma County : A Community Portrait

A local interview series that draws a picture of Sonoma County California in a set of sharply drawn, three-dimensional portraits of some of the remarkable individuals that call this green land home. At depth, each interview is warm, fun, flashing with insight and inspiration as interviewer Cincinnatus Hibbard explores the emotional taproots of what each guest does in and for Sonoma County, bringing forth the lessons and the value of each life lived here. Together this set of interviews begins to describe a web of inter-relations across our cross sectional divide and an emergent sense of who we are as Sonomans - our essence, our values, and where we are headed as a community. We hope you will join us!

I could listen to Joe, rapt, for hours on end, as he speaks with one of the most beautiful and prized American accents - the Italian South Philly sound. Joe is an all around host and entertainer, and together we tell three great strands of his story through the development of his three performance forms - drummer and conga player, swing dancer, and background talent ( film extra ) in some of the biggest films filmed in the North Bay! One of the more fascinating through lines in his story from Philly to Sonoma is how the basic conditions of the Sicilian village were recreated in the Americas - first in So. Philly's little Italy, and again in the conditions of a big Hollywood film production.
