Dear All,
   Wow, what a conference! I looked over the program, the list of presenters, and noted 
some other highlights more relevant to psychodrama:
      Ed Schreiber, as noted below; Saphira Linden, Rosalie Minkin (on Sociodrama), June 
Rabson Hare from Israel on the Living Newspaper technique, Rebecca Ridge integrating 
"cellular" health, Dan Wiener, Jean Winslow---in our own community
     but this is also an extraordinary opportunity to build bridges with drama therapists, 
art therapists, other kinds of approaches.
                     I'm sorry I can't attend---will be caught up in other projects--- but 
I hope y'all will write up your work.

     Consider submitting papers to the Journal of Creativity in Mental Health!

    Warmly, Adam
