Stella Adler

I always loved and appreciated Stella Adler, but had forgotten all about her. At least she’s not been in the forefront of my mind for some while. So imagine my delight when I saw a new posting by an unfamiliar Facebook site. Here she is! Plus, I have a new site to follow and enjoy.

Posted by Lumonics Light and Sound Gallery. American actress, teacher, and founder of the Stella Adler Conservatory of Acting in New York City (1949). Adler’s technique is founded on an actor’s ability to imagine a character’s world. She was well known in Yiddish Theatre and Marlon Brando studied under her. She was also a compatriot of Stanislavsky. She was known for her intelligence and discipline. Creativity, of course.

Sand Wash Basin Stallions

This is from a new site that I am following, even when depressed it seems. From Friends of Picasso—Grand Wild Stallion of Sand Wash Basin. SWB is in Colorado. Meg Frederick Photography is a frequent contributor and displays the best photos. She also has her own separate page.

Above is our hero himself. A close watch is being held in the hope that he mades it through the treacherous winter, as in the end—like the rest of us—he winters alone.
