In episode 4, I interview Elisha Harteis, a Missoula, Montana sculptor with a unique style and narrative to her work. In her artist statement, she describes her work: "The work that I am most passionate about focuses on depictions of children and animals. In this work, I address the social issues of child abuse by juxtaposing the quiet brutality of abuse against the perceived, inherent innocence of children."

He has been seen in Broadway national tours, regional theatre, is a teacher, photographer, and multi-talented artist. When I interviewed him in Phoenix, Arizona he was performing in An American In Paris at the Phoenix Theatre.
