Today my guest is Marian Brickner. Marian, in her words, is a "naïve, hang-off-the-edge of the bell-shaped curve on either the far right, or far left hand-side, and does not schmooze properly." Mich sees Marian as a creative, talented, whimsical photographer, artist and author that tends to create lots of smiles. Marian tells us about Bonobos, which are our closest great ape relatives who live in a uniquely peaceful and matriarchal society. Marian, inspired by the Bonobos, wrote a children's book. She tells us about her photography journey, her new book Dragons and Storks and the underlying theme of the book, and where to find her!
