Ronald Rand, Actor, Poet & Painter, "The Marsh in May" on the Sunbury Press Books Show!

Ronald Rand should be a person who requires no introduction. A US Cultural Ambassador, Rand has performed for 25 years as Harold Clurman in his solo play, Let It Be Art! in dozens of countries worldwide.

The Marsh in May features Rand's poetry and paintings on the Lucky Shoe Press imprint. The journey through these writings and artworks is described as transformative, with odes to Thomas Wolfe, Edwin Booth, Jean-Claude van Itallie, and places that include Kathmandu, Olympia, and Fez.

Rand discusses what inspired him to bring these pieces together while touring the world, and how one can keep their heart open, remain vulnerable, and appreciate every moment.
