Episode 80: Calling Spirits with Judith-Kate Friedman & featuring the late Daniel Deardorff House of Legends: World Myths & Legends

- Books
This is a very special episode!
My guest on today’s episode is Judith-Kate Friedman. Judith-Kate inhabits the flinty places where art, activism, ritual and oral tradition dance. She sings, composes, writes, performs, curates spaces, produces events, tends hearth-fires, tells stories and documents aliveness. Born in New York City, she now calls Washington State’s rural north Olympic Peninsula (traditional Coast Salish lands) home.
Judith-Kate was married to the late Daniel Deardorff, who was a mythsinger, storyteller, ritualist, composer, and producer. A polio survivor and early teacher about Otherness, he toured extensively with renowned soft-rock band Seals and Crofts and produced award-winning albums for other artists. When post-polio sequelae required change, he became an independent scholar of myth teaching internationally alongside such renowned teachers as Robert Bly, Martin Shaw, and Michael Meade, all of whom adored and revered him, and speak passionately of him and his work.
Judith-Kate runs the Mythsinger Legacy Project which continues Daniel’s work restoring myth to culture and community. In this episode, Judith-Kate and I talk about Daniel’s life and work, and we are very, very fortunate to feature a recording of Daniel telling a story.
