Produced for Feet In Two Worlds: Coming to the Table
Ask a man about his mother and inevitably he will talk about the food she cooked for him when he was growing up.  For men from immigrant backgrounds, mom’s cooking often has added significance because it connects them both to their memories of home and to the country where they or their parents came from. We asked the hosts of About Men Radio to tell us about dishes they learned to cook from their mothers that take inspiration from their immigrant roots.  Then we teamed up with our friends at Cowbird to bring you these wonderful stories.
Part One: Men, Their Mothers, and Food
Part Two: Bronx Stories - Keeping Meat on the Table and Honoring Mom
Part Three: Schooled by Their Mothers, These Men Carry On Family Recipes

Produced for Feet In Two Worlds: Redefining the American Dream
Homesick: Dominican Poet Francis Mateo on Washington Heights, Nostalgia, and Identity

Dad's Detroit - For Patrick Grant
An oral history with Gordon Grant, retired Detroit cop and auto-worker, using archival material, family pictures, current images and video, and audio interviews.  Grant long ago moved to Northern Michigan and had not seen the Detroit neighborhoods where he'd grown up or the streets he patrolled as a beat cop in the 1960s. We took him on a drive with his oldest son Patrick and his childhood friend Dick Wise to see what's changed.

Feet In Two Worlds: ‘What I Carried’ – A New Collection of Immigration Stories From Fi2W and Cowbird.
I helped create and teach the three day workshop that produced these stories. See the whole collection HERE.

A cookbook of family recipes, a stuffed toy bear, a ring handed down from a grandmother to her granddaughter.
For many immigrants, personal talismans are powerful symbols of culture, family history, or the journey to a better life in the U.S. We invited a group of young journalists to explore the significance of objects in a series of stories called “What I Carried.”
Using photography, audio and text, the stories reveal a range of immigration experiences from countries around the globe and across generations. The stories appear on the storytelling website Cowbird.


Teddy - for Erick Gonzales
This a short oral history based on old photographs that I created with my Dad, Teodoro Gonzales.
