Just in the starting stages is "THE SHADOW OF FREEDOM" a musical telling of the one American who voted his conscience and saved our country--perhaps single-handedly. His name was Edmund G. Ross, junior senator from the state of Kansas who was featured in John Kennedy's Pulitizer Prize winning novel "Profiles in Courage". The year was 1868: the impeachment trial of Andrew Johnson, the seventeenth president of the United States. His only crime was keeping alive the philosophy and the Reconstruction of this nation by Abraham Lincoln. three songs and twenty pages of libretto have been completed. Also in the planning stages is VALENTINE a miusical telling of the great saint whose name is synonimous with the great February holiday!
