For over three decades, monologuist and filmmaker Josh Kornbluth has been telling stories to try making the world more loving and fair (and also to get people to laugh). In recent years he's been focusing on uplifting the rights and dignity of the elderly and of people with brain disease, as well as those who care for them. He was the first Artist-in-Residence at the Zen Hospice Project in San Francisco, as well as a Fellow at the Global Brain Health Institute, based at UCSF's Memory and Aging Center. His "Citizen Brain" video series (citizenbrain.org), which deals with the connections between brain health and social justice, has been viewed by over half a million people. Among his current projects is a solo show titled The Bottomless Bowl, based on his experiences at the Zen Hospice Project, where he later became a volunteer for several years.
