Our guest is the locally based musician and photographer, Bernie Guzik. As a tuba player, the Ohio-born Guzik, who attended Julliard, has peformed with the New York Philharmonic, the American Symphony Orchestra, the Cleveland Orchestra, the Kansas City Philharmonic, the Tulsa Philharmonic, the Tulsa Symphony, and so forth. Now retired from music, he devotes more and more time to his other longtime passion: photography. Guzik tells us about this passion, which has led him to travel all over the world, documenting vanishing cultures with his camera. Guzik also talks about his newly opened "Unseen India" exhibit, now on view at the Sand Springs Cultural and Historical Museum. Please note that Guzik will speak about his photography at that museum tomorrow (Saturday the 16th) at 4pm; details are posted here.
