This "talk was the highlight of the UMSL FTTC. I come from Meta among other tech in Seattle. They have guest speakers all the time and I'm confident this talk would be a great addition to the lineup.
The talk was pertinent to the goals of Meta and I'm sure Amazon and Google.
Although Creativity is not in the "Core values" of any of these companies the outcomes; Patents and Innovations are dependent on Creativity."

Rob "gently encourages everybody to recognize not only their individual artistic spirit, but give over to the communal spirit of the artist's journey. I read the book to find out more about the art of scenic stagecraft; I came away with a reawakened heart to my own creative drive. This is a terrific, touching and fantastic piece of writing."
- Jeff Talbott, playwright, actor
