In addition to managing the Long Center, Eric is a musical arranger/orchestrator, producer, director, and educational clinician. He has worked with many of the nation’s finest high school and college music programs as well as Cedar Fair Amusement Parks, Show Choir Camps of America and the Indiana All Star Show Choir.

I found a volume of great relevance to Eric’s work, titled Sweat, Tears, and Jazz Hands: The Official History of Show Choir from Vaudeville to Glee by Mike Weaver and Colleen Hart. He assures us he’s included in it and points out that Mike Weaver is a graduate of local McCutcheon High School. You can find the story here.
This week's "Look Ups":
Eric spoke about his love for short films and recommends https://www.shortoftheweek.com. He also tells a funny story about the way his house appeared on Google Earth at https://www.google.com/earth/, where you can go anywhere on Earth (but unfortunately can no longer see the effects of his story apparently).
