Links to Other Sites

My son Ari is a graduate student in developmental/molecular biology and a software engineer, whose site is rich with excellent code, hiking and birding information, beautiful nature photographs, and great links to other sites, including Earthtrust. He has developed a bulletin board, which you can also see on his site at http://www.magiccookie.com.

My daughter Elana is a writer/producer and standup comic working in TV and film, including "Emeril Live!" who has been a coordinating producer for "Inside Scoop"--a series of Food Channel half-hour programs that take the viewer each week to a different and fascinating food-related place, such as NASA's food in space, a zoo, behind the scenes at the Good Housekeeping Institute, and many more.

You can find her wearable art at Elana Creations.


Here are some sites I have found worth visiting; they all link to a variety of other interesting places.

Craft Resources -- Directory of crafts-related website and discussion groups.

Great Trading Path -- a handsome presentation of art and information located in North Carolina, whose home page states: "The Great Trading Path exists in two dimensions. First on a level of Indian history and heritage, and secondly, as a living conduit of trade in today's world. We are building a fine collection of Native American drums, beadwork, crafts, jewelry, greeting cards, pottery, music, handmade soap and baskets. We are also planning to input, by hand, if necessary, original source historical documents on Native American history, focusing on the southeast Woodland cultures."

AlaskaNativeArtists.com is a virtual art program serving Alaska Native artists. The website was established by Sealaska Heritage Institute, a regional Native nonprofit founded in 1981 to perpetuate and enhance Tlingit, Haida and Tsimshian cultures.

The goal of AlaskaNativeArtists.com is to give Native artists a new venue to sell their art, to promote traditional and contemporary Native art, to educate the public about Native art and culture and to help support Sealaska Heritage Institute (a portion of all proceeds is used to fund language and culture programs offered by the institute, which operates AlaskaNativeArtists.com as a nonprofit vendor)

Cultural Survival--"Cultural Survival is a nonprofit organization founded in 1972 to defend the human rights and cultural autonomy of indigenous peoples and oppressed ethnic minorities.
