Being Present with Sunny Redmond: A conversation with model and healer Sunny Redmond on her life and careers

This particular episode started, as so many of our episodes do, with a particular work of art or singular human instance of the aesthetic. The work in question happens to be a photograph that Deborah Turbeville took for Vogue Magazine in 1975. Indeed I was so taken with it enough to acquire one signed by Turbeville. A couple of years later, as I find myself with a podcast, I had many ideas as to one or more episodes connected with that photograph. Perhaps a show on Deborah Turbeville, on modeling itself? It seemed that a single photograph opened up more than I could have realized when first I discovered Turbeville's work. I want to say that this is entirely in keeping with the nature of the artistic expression in all of its forms. It is utterly mysterious and things that seem on first blush or glance to be quite remote and disconnected only later, upon deepest examination to be as connected as to form a symbiotic unity. It could be a single photograph as much as a singular life. Sunny Redmond, our extraordinary guest on this particular episode, appears have so many experiences within this single and singular lifetime. Here was me wanting to discuss modeling, and the 70s and fashion and glamour and it turns out upon a little research that we would have to also discuss Hopi culture, traditional healing, the Grand Canyon and much more. I wouldn't have it any other way. I love the eloquence and directness of Sunny's discussion of her remarkable life. It seems rare to me for one person to have done all that she has. I can hear her voice most likely saying to me now that "it was the most natural thing in the world" and I am glad that it is. I was only too happy that she created the time and space to be on our show and I hope the listener might be inspired too to take a look at this thing we, for lack of a better word, call spirituality.” For the arts and spirit are intimately connected and Sunny Redmond knows a lot about both.
