“Shakespeare-in-Pictures” (most recently released) is a combination printed-book+Internet-file. It embodies my modest and yet hopefully effective method to preserve and strengthen our memory, while having some intelligent fun in doing so. Equally yielding some other benefits and demonstrating Shakespeare’s very principle embodied in the title. (Taming of the Shrew). Why and how it is so is the focus of the presentation. 

According to Shakespeare all the world is a stage, all humans are players, and their play has seven acts. I shrunk mine to three and am now in the third. Born and schooled in Italy in the classics, during my first act I was a musician, actually a singing guitarist. After twice the time usually required for the task, I got a PhD in engineering and was hired by a then well-known Oregon company, Tektronix, as their international marketing manager.  Not long later I founded and ran my computer company for 28 years (act #2). Then, act #3 and current, I became a writer and producer of educational/historical videos. My connection with Shakespeare began during the second act and in the third it evolved into an (almost) full-time occupation.
