Harvesting Happiness Talk Radio with Lisa Cypers Kamen brings to the airwaves a fresh talk radio approach promoting happiness, well-being and global human flourishing by presenting a diverse and proactive collection of the greatest thinkers and doers who have devoted their lives to creating a better world in which to live.


Described   as  possessing   a  “luscious   and   full-bodied tone” (Das Opernglas),  British-American mezzo-soprano  Andrea  Baker is renowned  for her distinctive  voice,  intense  artistry,  and passion.  Her much heralded interpretations range from Amneris in Aida, Fricka in Die Walküre and the title role in Carmen to Mescalina in Le Grand Macabre and Nen -Nen in Dominique Legendre’s world premier of The Bird of Night. 

Mission of Adopt an Inmate:
To remind the world and those caught in the grip of the justice system that both accused and adjudicated are human.

To provide relief, comfort, and hope, to those facing judgement, and to help those sentenced emerge from prison whole, knowing they are part of a larger family that loves and cares for them.

Ultimately, Adopt an Inmate seeks to change prison itself from an arbitrary system of cruelty and punishment to one which intrinsically recognizes the humanity of its charges and treats them accordingly such that recidivism is a rarity, rather than a feature, of our current system's design.

"She wears strength and darkness equally well, the girl has always been half goddess,half hell." -Mr. Graey
