He NEVER CREDITED the Deaf Community for the performance POWER that made him an international celebrity! That made his performances SO POWERFUL and INFLUENTIAL. As a Hearing person is such an Audistic environment, he needed to SPEAK UP for Deafhood, to be a LONE Hearing spokesperson against so much obvious Audism. He COULD have been such a powerful VOICE (so to "speak") and never really did so. Where was the school of DEAF MIMES that he could have NURTURED and presented to the world as EQUALS or even SUPERIORS to his ART??? Where was his outspoken advocacy for LSF and other signed languages??? Why DIDN'T he use his position he gained THROUGH users of Signed Languages to show others the BEAUTY and LINGUISTIC COMPLEXITY of SIGN???

I wish to see his drama. I never seen his sweet with a big silent. I have seen him in TV. but I have not met him in real person. I thought MM is important to deaf community in few states he traveled different of states. Without speaking or ASL. just his own body language. he is the best of mime. Remember We dont forgot about him. Amy,

Carwile is a correct spelling, but I fingerspelled wrong. It's hard to re-do the video. Kudos to Floridagirl for catching me! Bill Carwile, if you are watching this video, I hope you will accept my apologizes for misspelling your name on the videoclip. Best, Amy Cohen Efron Hi Floridagirl,

What’s that your vlog is in the corner of print with letters C A R W I L E above. It is definitely mistake when I don’t mean to mock on you. Don’t be upset with me because I can’t help seeing how you fingerspell. I notice you are fingerspelling the word C A R V I L E.

Thank you for an incredibly heartfelt tribute to Marcel Marceau. Although I have not had the opportunity to see MM in person, I recall Bernard Bragg (BB) speaking highly of MM when BB was under MM's tutelage in France when BB was visiting CSD Riverside in 1983. Soon after, I got an opportunity to view a video of MM and was intensely captivated by his beautiful and vivid storytelling via mime! Thank you, Amy, for sharing this with us! May the spirit of MM be with us all! ~Ginny Amy-
