Maria Skłodowska Curie’s Warsaw
This is a multimedia guide to the city where the two-time Nobel prize-winning scientist Maria Skłodowska-Curie was born and raised – before she left for France to complete her education and carry out her remarkable career. The audio portion of this guide – in six language versions – was written and produced along with Warsaw-based screenwriter and British television presenter Anna Piwowarska – all part of the city of Warsaw’s 2011 Year of Maria Skłodowska-Curie celebrations.

    • Blank on Blank“Blank on Blank” is a multimedia project, headed by David Gerlach, aiming to bring lost interviews to life. Raw audio interviews – with famous names and everyday Americans – gathering dust on hard drives and cassette tapes are transformed with a little music, sharp editing, and smart storytelling into audio pieces, as well as animated shorts. I’ve worked hard with David to create fun, memorable and decidedly listenable audio productions out of hissing tape from elbow-knocked table-top recordings. I’ve produced quite a few for the project. Here are samples of my favorites.
