About Me

New Citizen's Advocate Radio LIVE on Revere Radio Network
EVERY THURSDAY NIGHT at 8pm EST!


I am an electronic media artist, film and TV producer, designer, singer and songwriter, an avid organic gardener, a social activist and am very happily married with one lovely daughter. I most recently have accepted a position with Aaron Russo's national activist group as his National Director of New Media.
My main goal in establishing this myspace account is to expand my network by seeking out other original talents whom may wish to have me produce their works, and to find professional representation for myself and the talented people that I produce. I love to talk about life and issues that really matter.
www.ettaro.com
I am an independent film, tv and talk show producer focusing on documentaries, travel and social issues and an educator on these topics as well. 19 years of professional experience in the fields of electronic publishing (web, graphic, and print) and artist promotion and management have lead me to where I am now acting in capacity of producer and host of several .. and television shows and creator of various educational programs. In 2004-2005 "The Life and Times of Punxsutawney Phil", my premiere documentary effort aired on six PBS stations including KLCS in Los Angeles and I'm currently a featured "PA Celebrity" (can you believe THAT?) on www.visitpa.com due to my tourism show www.keystonextra.com which ran as a news feature Fox8 TV here in the mid-state region of Pennsylvania for a year and a half and my other educational TV/web show www.futuresfastforward.com as well as the creation of the above-mentioned documentary film.
I currently act in the professional capacity of an educator and seminar developer and presenter locally and at times accross the state of PA and from time to time do still generate straight commercial production for choice clients. The focus of my outreach efforts through the school I work with is on topics relating to youth, entrepreneurship and the new digital media technologies. I serve full-time at a regional technical school as a consultant assisting instructors in development of curriculum and enhancing existing learning opportunities through my real-world approach to multimedia education. The website and tv show, Futures..Fast Forward www.futuresfastforward.com , are a product of my BAM Program, an original educational program developed for schools to help them grow their in-house media labs to produce national-level content.

My Interests

    Organic Gardening Vibrant Political and Philosophical Discussion Original Music of All Sorts Creating Thought-Provoking and Entertaining TV Content and Films Travel The Truth

I'd like to meet:

    Thinking people who like to create original art, grow organic foods and help others with their gifts.
    Talent scouts, film and TV producers and/or artist managment professionals and agents.
    Original musicians.
    Daring Entrepreneures.
    Screen-writers with a knockout idea for the knockout thriller/horror flick that I'm just aching to produce.
    Those who abhor the motives, methods and goals of the Bush Administration.

Music:

    No particular genre is preferred although I'm partial to jazz of all sorts, heady and edgy metal and progressive rock and classical when I'm mellow.

    Some Alltime Favorites Include: Queensryche Rusted Root Rage Against the Machine Winton Marsallis Steely Dan Rockin' Teenage Combo Royal Crescent Mob Doobie Brothers Billy Joel Fleetwood Mac
