"Like fire piercing through water his words are powerful, possessing a great sincerity." (Jahn Davis)As a poet, George R. McDonald has been making a name for himself in the
Los Angeles area for the past five years. It was in the year 2000 that George's soul found its voice by way of the pen. George incorporates life experience, storytelling and his profound understanding ofothers into a tapestry of spoken word. His live performances evoke a range of responses from contagious laughter to pensive reflection and even arousal.For those that know him, wisdom and balance are the words that are used most to
describe George. It could be a mixture of his Libra nature and the "old soul" that
powers his creativity.In an effort to expose poetry to as many ears as possible, George often performs
showcases for highshool students and community outreach workshops. He recently
produced a show called "Wordz" which raised money for a local women's transitional
living facility.George has been featured at some of Los Angeles' premiere poetry venues. They
include Da Poetry Lounge, BB King's, Do Boys Dozen Coffee House, Magic Johnson's
Starbucks and The Hard Rock Café in New Orleans, Highways Performce Gallery, . McDonald's poetry has appeared in
numerous publications, including Arnal Anthology: Poets without Limits. George also
has several television appearances to his credit, most notably ABC's "Eye on LA" and
