Still We Rise

Thanks to the generous support of Wells Fargo Bank, SAVE THE DATE is on the move. Starting now, we move one step closer to our goal of bringing our unique branded content to the entire state of California. From there, we know the possibilities are endless. As we look ahead, we not only thank Wells Fargo for their support of us, but for their generous support of small businesses, non-profits, and social service agencies across the country. Many thanks to all the men and women who have made this partnership possible. Bless you.

While opportunities are great, they can also be exhausting. As a result, I hope to use this summer to really take stock. I also want to make sure that I take notice as well. As residents of California, we are surrounded by the full range of earth's natural beauty. As much as possible, I want to adhere to that old adage which reminds us to stop and smell the roses. Hopefully, most of you will join me in taking time to relax, taking time to travel, and taking time to try something new. I know I'm overdue.

Our cover feature for this issue is the great American storyteller, August Wilson. As a writer who has given so much to us, and to the nation, I wanted to do my part to give a little back in return. While we are pleased to promote his latest show at the Taper, I am most honored to applaud the playwright himself. After ten shows that have chronicled the African American journey in the 20th century, what better person to showcase other than the greatest living playwright of our time. Happy trails everybody.

Blessings,

Sarah Harris
