Amazing.

Carla Zilber-Smith died May 21st, 2010 of ALS, but at her funeral, she had one final surprise: a video that she had kept secret for over a year, even from her own family, that brought the audience (because of course her funeral had an audience) to laughter, tears, etc.

Carla was an accomplished singer and has released 3 CDs: “Extraordinary Renditions”, “Uncovered”, and “Songs about Love Death and Wings” — all of which can be purchased here: http://www.cdbaby.com/Artist/CarlaZilbersmith

If you want to read more about Carla, go to carlamuses.blogspot.com, where she blogged for several years. Carla is the subject of the upcoming documentary “Leave Them Laughing: A Musical Comedy About Dying,” which you can find out about at leavethemlaughingfilm.com.

Hipsters, Hotdogs and Heaven.

I love the vibe of Art Walk in Downtown, Los Angeles so I decided to film it so I could show it to you through my eyes.

The streets fill up with artists, musicians, food trucks, and people looking to laugh, dance and just have a good time.
