"I'd like to be
remembered as a guy who tried — tried to be part of his times, tried to help
people communicate with one another, tried to find some decency in his own life,
tried to extend himself as a human being. Someone who isn't complacent, who
doesn't cop out.” Paul Newman

Deep in the Heart
Tue Feb 22 2011 file under film
As the stand in for Jon Gries I was on set for
the entire production. What an amazing opportunity to see every scene of
the film created from paper. In this video Dick Wallrath is interviewed.
The film is his life story. (I'm in the background on set in the kitchen.)

Jon Gries and Val Kilmer on the set of Deep in
the Heart
I've been waiting for the end of filming to talk
about my experience working on the film Deep in the Heart. I had the privilege
of working as the stand in for Jon Gries. It was a life changing experience
for me, an incredible opportunity. It was a kind and generous set.
Jon and Chris Cain the director set the tone for the 20 days. I'm not
getting into detail here of how the experience influenced me deeply, maybe
another time. For now I'll say that I will always hold my time working on
this film deep in my heart.
Deep in the Heart stars Gries as Richard Wallrath, a Texas entrepreneur who is the biggest all-time individual donor to that state's 4-H and Future Farmers of America organizations. The real Dick Wallrath, his wife Patsy and other family members were often on set. Dick has helped many rural kids get an education who otherwise wouldn't have had the opportunity over the years through his generous donations to FFA. The film is scheduled for release in 2012.

Twin Flames - update on the
new Jet Baker love song
Sat Feb 5 2011 file under music
It's coming before valentines day. Twin Flames is the second song from my forthcoming country/folk/sunshine pop cd. Thank you to everyone who commented about Peace and Love and No More War. Yes it's a whole new genre. It's also about things I've never recorded before, deep personal stuff and peace and love. I've lived in Austin Texas for 6 years now and live music is everywhere here, the grocery store, the gas station, the side of the road. I'm not kidding. I set out to create a new sound on this collection of songs influenced by the music I hear around town. Some of the best musicians in town have kindly joined me on these recordings.
