Conversation with Musical Artist John Tyler
An unexpected change in schedule introduced us to a new friend of the school. John Tyler joined us for a Conversation today. John is a talented native Baltimorean whose list of accomplishments is especially remarkable when you consider that his still in his mid-twenties – Emmy award winning composer, musical recording and producing artist, creating and curating music for the Ravens and the Orioles, scoring major motions pictures, and initiating and continuing to produce the annual Love Groove Festival in Baltimore.
John shared the stories of his youth including growing up not far from the school in Hoes Heights. The students appreciated that he was so open about his past and found it particularly helpful when he talked about his challenges – some of whom are shared by students – and how he overcame them. We are very grateful that John came in on such short notice and so kindly and candidly engaged with te students. He pledged to come back and we are all looking forward to his return.
