This week I bring you from my own radio playa “Burns Brightly” with a co-founder of Burning Man and others in one shimmery hour. And all these incandescdent people lit up the same show as they do today.

 

The radiant love songs of the brilliant, drill songwriter JONATHAN RICHMAN with Tommy Larkins;

 

GEORGE WINSTON, composer and record producer lights up the piano, the guitar, and the harmonica with his virtuosity. 

 

ANNE LAMOTT, author, on the miracles of compassion and kindness in the most unexpected moments and how to illuminate ourselves from within. 

 

LARRY HARVEY, whose Burning Man was once a Floating Man, started the event in 1986 with a few friends. In April 1997, when he came by to talk about a new Burning Man photo book, it was 10K people and 3 days over Labor Day weekend. Now it’s 70K people, about 10 days, and a world-wide phenomenon. LARRY died in April this year, age 70. He’s being remembered at this week’s Burning Man 2018 -- where again the Man will burn brightly. 

 

Here's an ABC news report from 1997:
