Jeffrey Peterson- Filmmaker
Born and raised in MN, I moved to TN to get out of the cold when I was 25. I now live near Nashville TN, I have a wife and a 21yr old son. I've worked in retail most of my life. Over the last few years I had been doing podcasts as well, and had formed some friendships with a couple film makers that were going to do a film with the lead having Down syndrome.
During that time I found out that over 75% of prenatal diagnosis’s of Down syndrome are terminated, and it just broke my heart. So I learned everything I could about Down syndrome. And then I had an idea, an idea for a short film that showed what so many pregnant women hear, “I’m sorry, your baby has Down syndrome”, versus what they should hear, “Congratulations”. So I wrote my first short film, and it was released in July of 2023, called “More Than a Diagnosis”. It is only 3 min and 21 sec long on purpose because Down syndrome is a 3rd copy of the 21st chromosome. It has also won an award in NY Staten Island film festival.

Barbara Feigin-Family Journal of a Secret Families Past
Encouraged by her parents’ admonition to “dream big, work hard, and never quit,” Feigin became a pioneering executive who found success in a completely male-dominated business—advertising—when career-building opportunities for women were virtually nonexistent. In her illustrious thirty-year career at Grey Advertising (now Grey Global Group), she solidified her reputation as a visionary thinker. In all her years as a senior advertising executive and a corporate director, she was more often than not the only woman in the room. In 2017, Feigin was named one of the century’s Legendary Pioneers by Grey.
Feigin and her husband, Jim, built a strong, loving family of three sons, including identical twins. Their lives were shattered when Jim had two very serious strokes when he was quite young. For the next twenty-five years, she was Jim’s caregiver-in-chief. The family’s strong bonds and great love for Jim helped them navigate this traumatic time.
Feigin currently lives in New York City.

Reflections of Our Life with Andrew Pessin
Andrew Pessin is Professor of Philosophy at Connecticut College and Campus Bureau Editor for The Algemeiner—and portrayed “The Genius” on the former Late Show with David Letterman. Author of academic articles and books as well as works of philosophy for a general audience, his book, Uncommon Sense: The Strangest Ideas from the Smartest Philosophers, was named an “Outstanding Academic Title” by Choice.
He has also published four novels, and greatly enjoys meeting (either in person or by video link) with the many bookclubs that have adopted them. The Second Daughter, written under the pen name J. Jeffrey—read the novel to find out why the pen name!—was a Semi-Finalist in Literary Fiction at The Kindle Book Review Book awards. The Irrationalist is an historical murder mystery based on the tragic life and mysterious death of the famous philosopher and mathematician, René Descartes. Nevergreen is an academic satire, and Bright College Years is about either how college used to be or how one remembers it years later, which might not be the same thing. In his spare time he plays guitar and piano and produces vocal sounds that approximate singing, and composes the occasional ditty.
