Lecture Underground Author Bill Carter has lived in Arizona for much of the past several decades, and is involved in a new project called "Border Songs: A collection of music and spoken word."

It is a 100% charitable 35 song, 2-CD package with 100% of the money going to buying water and food for those souls crossing the Arizona border.

From his blog:

This is not a political statement of what or how the immigration policy in the U.S. should go, it is a humanitarian gesture to help those human beings dying of dehydration, lost in our desert lands.

This is a video produced by U2 titled "Missing Sarajevo", and tells the story of Bill Carter, an amazing author and filmmaker I will be representing at NACA West. In the early 90's he teamed up with Bono & U2 through a series of incredible circumstances, and helped to play a major role to end the Bosnian War. The video tells of their incredible encounter, and of the amazing feats of technological prowess required to pull off their efforts. For more, come visit me in booth #107.

This is the film Bush League by Cy Kuckenbaker, who I will be representing at NACA West this year. He's road from Fulbright scholar to Peace Corps to filmmaker is perfect for college audiences. He can also talk to specific groups about filmmaking, multiculturalism and his experiences in Malawi and Lithuania.

Bill Carter is a personal hero and friend, and I will be representing him at NACA West this year. I first learned of him after reading his amazing memoir "Fools Rush In" about his experience delivering aid and teaming up with Bono and U2 during the Bosnian War. I would certainly not be doing what I am now if I hadn't read that book and been inspired to leave the corporate world ... it's hands down the most amazing tale I've ever come across and PERFECT for all college audiences. I've worked with him to set up gigs at Harvard, NYU, The University of Washington, Portland State, Clark College, Pacific University - and many more festivals and assorted book signings. He's just come out with a new book titled "Boom, Bust, Boom: A Story About Copper, The Metal That Runs The World." It's a must read for anyone curious about one of the most ubiquitous (and profitable) metals in the world - and all of the history, politics, environmental and humanitarian angles and controversies that follow. If you're concerned about copper mining, the 1872 Mining Law or Pebble Mine in Alaska, this is must read.

Dwayne Epstein will be represented by Lecture Underground at NACA West this year. He is a great entertainer, and the author of many celebrity biographies - from Hillary Clinton to Hillary Swank. He's getting ready to come out with a new biography on actor Lee Marvin - often considered the first action star. For history buffs, film buffs, celebrities chasers and more - Dwayne is your man.

Cy Kuckenbaker will be represented by me at NACA West this year. His resume is almost as long (and distinguished) as "The Lord of the Rings" but his films are the work of nonfiction. He can talk about his road from the Fulbright Award to the Peace Corps, and his experience storytelling through film.

Daniel Simpson will be represented at NACA West this year where I'll talk about his remarkable career as a New York Times Balkans correspondent, an insane job for a 20-something, and how he threw it all away in an attempt to start a free-love (and free-drug) event in a dangerous mafia-run country.
