1 Presenter Biosketches Diane Ackerman celebrated interpreter of science and nature is the author of two dozen highly acclaimed works of nonfiction and poetry, including The Zookeeper s Wife and A Natural History of the Senses books beloved by millions of readers all over the world. In prose so rich and evocative that one can feel the earth turning beneath one s feet as one reads, Ackerman s thrilling observations urge us to live in the moment, to wake up to nature s everyday miracles. Her most recent book, The Human Age: The World Shaped By Us (Norton, 2014), won the 2015 PEN New England Henry David Thoreau Prize for literary excellence in nature writing for a book that celebrates the natural world and human ingenuity, while exploring how the human race has become the single dominant force of change on the whole planet; it was also a New York Times bestseller and Notable Book of In The Human Age Ackerman declares, Our relationship with nature has changed radically, irreversibly, but by no means all for the bad. Our new epoch is laced with invention. Our mistakes are legion, but our talent is immeasurable. The Zookeeper s Wife (2008) tells the true story of Antonina and Jan Zabinski, Christian directors of the Warsaw Zoo during WWII, who saved over 300 doomed Jews, hiding many of them in the zoo cages. The Zookeeper s Wife was a New York Times Bestseller for 54 weeks. Speaking deeply to readers of all ages, it received the Orion Book Award and has been chosen as a Freshman Reads and Community Reads book in many. A full length feature film of The Zookeeper s Wife, starring Jessica Chastain and Daniel Bruhl, will be released on March 31, One Hundred Names for Love was a finalist for the Pulitzer Prize, the National Book Critics Circle Award, and the Books for a Better Life Award. It tells the story of Ackerman s work to bring her husband back from the depths of aphasia after he suffered a terrible stroke, and was described by the Washington Post as an ode to playfulness and the brain s plasticity a testament to the power of creativity in language, life and love. Other nonfiction titles include Dawn Light: Dancing with Cranes and Other Ways to Start the Day, a book about waking up to each passing moment; An Alchemy of Mind, a poetics of the brain based on the latest neuroscience; Cultivating Delight: A Natural History of My Garden; Deep Play, which considers play, creativity, and our need for transcendence; A Slender Thread, about her work as a crisis line counselor; The Rarest of the Rare; and The Moon by Whale Light, in which she explores the plight and fascination of endangered animals; A Natural History of Love; On Extended Wings, her memoir of flying. Inspired by A Natural History of the Senses, she also hosted a five-hour PBS television series of the same name. While humans might luxuriate in the idea of being in nature, but Ms. Ackerman has taught generations that we are nature for no facet of nature is as unlikely as we, the tiny bipeds with the giant dreams. Ackerman s poetry has been published in leading literary journals. Maxine Kumin says of it, I know enough to know when I m in the presence of a brilliant mind. Her acrobatic poems are full of fact and

2 exuberance. Her poetry books are Origami Bridges: Poems of Psychoanalysis and Fire; I Praise My Destroyer; Jaguar of Sweet Laughter: New and Selected Poems; Lady Faustus; Reverse Thunder: A Dramatic Poem; Wife of Light; The Planets: A Cosmic Pastoral. Her essays about nature and human nature have appeared in The New York Times, Smithsonian, Parade, The New Yorker, National Geographic, and many other journals, where they have been the subject of much praise. She is also an Op-Ed columnist for The New York Times. She also writes nature books for children. Those titles include: Animal Sense; Monk Seal Hideaway; and Bats: Shadows in the Night. Diane Ackerman was born in Waukegan, Illinois. She received an MA, MFA, and PhD from Cornell University and has received many prizes and awards, including a D.

Joseph McMoneagle joined the U.S. Army and was recruited by the Army Security Agency for classified assignments. As a result of some unusual events in his life: a near-death experience, a UFO sighting, and numerous spontaneous out-of-body episodes, he became aware of his intuitive abilities and developed the skill of remote viewing. He later became one of the original Intelligence Officers recruited for the top-secret Army program now known as STARGATE. Following his retirement from the Army, he maintained his association with the STARGATE program through his own company, Intuitive Intelligence Applications, working as a remote viewing consultant to the Cognitive Sciences Laboratories at SRI- International and Science Applications International Corporation until the programs closure in November of Jason Padgett is a number theorist with Acquired Savant Syndrome from Anchorage Alaska, currently living in Tacoma, Washington. He was a struggling futon salesman for decades until a traumatic event changed the path of his life forever and started his art and math career. He is now a professional speaker and published author in over 20 countries, including serving as a TED Speaker in 2015 and TEDx Speaker in His autobiography 'Struck by Genius', co-authored with Maureen Seaberg, is being adapted as a major motion picture by Sony and Channing Tatum. His art has been displayed in People Magazine, Ghostbusters (2016), Entertainment Weekly, Popular Science, Wired, CBS This Morning with Gale King, The London Times NBC, CBS, FOX news, the hit show Perception, and at Oxford University, and ABOMB Bakehouse at Art Basel Miami Beach. It has been included in books, music albums and on television programs in over 60 countries. The beauty of numbers and their connection to the pure geometry of space time and the universe is shown in his fractal diagrams. When he first started drawing he had no traditional math training and could only draw what he saw as math. Eventually a physicist saw his drawings and helped him get traditional mathematics training to be able to describe in equations the complex geometry of his drawings. He is currently a mathematical and philosophical artist and lecturer and has been studying mathematics. Steve Paulson is the Executive Producer and one of the founders of To the Best of Our Knowledge. He has been a contributing writer for Salon and has written for Slate, Huffington Post and other publications. His radio reports have also been broadcast on NPR's Morning Edition and All Things Considered. His book, Atoms and Eden: Conversations on Religion and Science, was published by Oxford University Press in John Preston, R.Ac, M.Ac I was born on February 6,1954 in Vancouver, British Columbia, to Canadian military parents. Educated in Canada, England & Washington DC. I Graduated from Concordia university in Montreal with an honours BA in Communication Arts in I was awarded a Canada Council grant for fine arts photography in 1976 where I found myself more interested in "who sees" than what is seen. This looking

5 led me to photograph in South East Asia, where I first encountered monastic Buddhism. There are few joys in life that can compare with the privilege of being able to follow ones "seeking instinct" with full attention, 24 hours a day, week after week, month after month, year after year. That is the privilege that being an ordained Buddhist monk gave me for five years in the East. I reluctantly returned west due to radical health events and practiced for three more years in an American Buddhist community. (Tofu was only a modest improvement over outright starvation].the quest to regain my physical health led me to acupuncture and the five element dynamics of traditional Chinese medicine, which I then studied full time from 1985 to As part of my studies at that time I also embarked on an ongoing and very useful course of psychedelic assisted psychotherapy. I have been in private practice using acupuncture and meditation to promote health and inner awareness in my clients and community ever since. In the mid 90's a friend took a trip to Nepal from where she insisted she would bring me a present. While in a shop containing Tibetan Singing bowls in Katmandu she was approached by the proprietor of the shop with whom she had not yet spoken. (He himself turned out to be the world s leading recording artist of Tibetan bowls ).He addressed her thus, "madam, you have a colleague at home to whom you have promised a gift, this singing bowl I am offering you now is that gift. Please take it to him with my blessing. It will change his work." She did and it has. Tibetan seven metal bowls are profound objects whose healing frequencies can adapt to each individual. The combination of sound immersion and acupuncture has been my practice for more than 20 years now. I have been conducting sound meditation groups for 16 of those years. In 2008 I completed a one hour documentary on Theravadin Buddhism. "In Search of Nirvana" is a tribute to my teachers and a tool for meditators to which they may return again and again. No one can make insight happen. But we can prepare the environment in which it's arising is more likely. Useful words, useful sounds, and useful sensations, contemplated at the right time can help do that. Awareness wants to arise. Louie Schwartzberg is an award-winning producer, director and cinematographer whose notable career spans more than three decades providing breathtaking imagery for feature films, television shows, documentaries and commercials. As the only filmmaker in the world who has been shooting time-lapse 24/7 continuously for well over three decades, Schwartzberg is a visual artist breaking barriers, connecting with audiences, and telling stories that celebrate life and reveal the mysteries and wisdom of nature, people and places. Louie is credited by many with pioneering the contemporary stock footage industry by founding Energy Film Library, a global company, which was acquired by Getty Images in His recent theatrical releases include the 3D IMAX film Mysteries of the Unseen World with National Geographic, narrated by Forest Whitaker, and Wings of Life, a feature-length documentary for Disneynature, narrated by Meryl Streep. Schwartzberg s Mysteries film is a journey into invisible worlds that are too slow, too fast, too small and too vast for the human eye to see. In partnership with the National Science Foundation, Lockheed Martin, and Siemens, this film opened nationwide Fall 2013 to rave reviews from audiences and experts alike.

6 Using time-lapse, high-speed and macro cinematography, Schwartzberg offers audiences an intimate and unprecedented high-definition glimpse into the hidden world of butterflies, hummingbirds, bats and bees in his Wings of Life film, including the precarious relationship these pollinators have with flowers a third of the world s food supply depending on these increasingly threatened species. After its theatrical premiere, Wings of Life is now available on Blu-ray and DVD through Amazon and On-Demand through Netflix. This extraordinary film has won numerous kudos including Best Theatrical Program at the Jackson Hole Science Media Awards, the Best Cinematography Award at the Ocean Film Festival, and Wild Talk Africa s Roscar Award. In addition to his feature films, Schwartzberg also curates Moving Art, the world s first collection of 2D and 3D moving images created as fine art for digital screens, from nature to cityscapes to visual effects. Designed to inspire, educate and perhaps even evolve our perspective on the world, Moving Art is now available on IPTV devices such as Roku, mobile devices via the ios and Android platforms, and as an Original Series on Netflix the first 4K content to appear on that channel. Several Moving Art film shorts have gone viral including the hits Gratitude and Beauty of Pollination with 44MM+ YouTube views which have spawned successful related projects such as books (Hay House, Sterling) and webinar series (MentorsChannel, John Templeton Foundation). Custom 4K resolution Moving Art pieces created by Schwartzberg can also be found in high-end hospitality venues around the world. Schwartzberg is distinguished as an artist and a pioneer who transformed 35mm time-lapse photography into an arresting art form made available for the first time to feature films and other content platforms. His stunning nature, aerial and slice-of-life imagery has transformed films by such directors as Steven Spielberg, Oliver Stone, Francis Ford Coppola, Paul Haggis and Ridley Scott, including American Beauty, The Bourne Ultimatum, Crash, Erin Brockovich, E.T., Independence Day, Jerry Maguire, Koyaanisqatsi, Men in Black, Twister and countless others. As the founder of BlackLight Films, Schwartzberg brought us projects like America s Heart & Soul, for Walt Disney Pictures, the America!, 26-episode half-hour series for The Hallmark Channel; and the one-hour Chasing the Light documentary that aired on PBS and numerous other channels. A coveted speaker worldwide for inspirational corporate and nonprofit audiences, Schwartzberg is also active in the TED community. Videos of two of his most recent TEDx talks are regularly cited among the top-watched TEDx talks of all time. An MFA film school graduate of UCLA, he both chaired and served as executive director of the Action! Vote Coalition and served on the board of the Earth Communications Office and the Environmental Media Association. He is a member of both the Directors Guild of America and the Academy of Motion Arts and Sciences. Over his long trailblazing career, Schwartzberg has earned myriad awards and honors including two Clio Awards for Best Environmental PSAs, an Emmy nomination for Best Cinematography ( Oceans of Air on the Discovery Channel), a Truly Moving Picture Award from the Heartland Film Festival ( America s Heart & Soul ) and Best Film Inspiration at the Ocean Film Festival ( Gratitude ). He was recognized as one of the Top 70 Cinematographers for the On Film Kodak Salute Series. Schwartzberg was also recently honored and humbled to receive the NAAPC Pollinator Protector award. For Schwartzberg, the greatest satisfaction is creating works that can have a positive effect on the future of the planet. I hope my films inspire and open people s hearts. Beauty is nature s tool for survival you protect what you love. If I can move enough people on an emotional level, I hope we can achieve the shift in consciousness we need to sustain and celebrate life.

The lab's research focuses on how mediated experiences change people s perceptions, especially in immersive media. Research areas include the clinical applications of virtual reality, and how nonverbal behavior as rendered in virtual environments affects collaboration and teamwork. Andrea Stevenson Won completed her PhD in the Virtual Human Interaction Lab in the Department of Communication at Stanford University. She also holds an MS in Biomedical Visualization from the University of Illinois at Chicago. Malynn Utzinger is a physician and teacher of contemplative practices whose longtime interests have spanned the realm of mind-body-psyche approaches to wellbeing. While moving from graduate studies in cultural anthropology to medical school, she spent a life-changing year in 1995 working for Dean Ornish, MD, an early pioneer in preventive medicine in San Francisco. There she saw how the a comprehensive lifestyle change program including a high quality diet, mindfulness (taught by Jon Kabat- Zinn), aerobic exercise and yoga, and weekly group support sessions changed the lives of thousands of people with heart disease, not only reversing their disease in many cases, but opening their minds and hearts to the life-shifting effects of living life more consciously--with greater attention to what nourishes the mind and body. This experience convinced Dr. Utzinger that new medical students had to have a way to learn about these integrative and contemplative practices so that they could help their patients make wise and meaningful choices. Thus she founded and co-developed the first course in complementary and alternative medicine taught at the University of Wisconsin in 1997, kicked off by a team of students and staff including Richie Davidson, PhD now the founder of the Center for Healthy Minds at the University of Wisconsin. During her medical education, Dr. Utzinger took time to study with Andrew Weil, MD, founding director of the Integrative Medicine fellowship at the University of Arizona and James Gordon, MD, former director of the NIMH and founder of the Center for Mind-Body Medicine, and philosopher Ken Wilber, founder of the Integral Institute in Boulder, CO, and Rachel Remen, MD of UCSF and Commonweal, honing skills that led to her teaching courses in human flourishing and Mind-Body Skills for people with cancer during her residency in family medicine and fellowship in preventive oncology, both at the University of Wisconsin. After completion of these studies, Dr. Utzinger worked first as an assistant professor in Family Medicine at the UW-Madison and ran a private integrative practice until she moved to California to accept a position as the Director of Women s Health for the Chopra Center, where she led programs in meditation, yoga and Ayurvedic medicine. This position eventually led her to NYC for six years, where she continued to teach and offer integrative medicine consults for the Chopra Center and the Eileen Fisher corporation and in private practice. In 2013, Malynn and her family returned to Madison to work for Promega, where she is Director of Integrative Practices at Promega and the Co-Managing Director of Usona Institute, a non-profit medical research organization focusing on shifting consciousness with novel treatments for depression and anxiety. This position has allowed her to focus not only on offering integrative approaches to health to Promega employees but also to co-create a program of training in mindfulness and emotional and social intelligence (ESI) as an integral part of helping employees to work simultaneously on the art of business and the art of being.
