“When I first heard Hersch interviewed on NPR years ago, I said, ‘I’ve got to know more about this guy.

What it taught her, and the audience, was about the richness—including the fear, humor, and creativity—of the experience.
Great review in Health Canal of MY COMA DREAMS performance at Columbia University.
