On-line Interviews and Articles
1999 ~ 2010
For a few weeks of the late Spring of 2002 I was the guest of the well-known book-author-interview
internet-site "Inkwell.vue" (run by The Well discussion-forum of San Francisco, where I've been a
member since 1993).  A bunch of us talked about my book Spirit of the Mountains and the related
issues.  The slightly-edited transcript is posted here.  It contains a lot of good background info
about San-shin and Korea, stories from my research, and discussion about it all.  I think the whole
discussion went off pretty well, but you can decide for yourself.

In 2004, two of my articles were featured by Yonhap News Agency World Service
on its English website's "Korean Culture, Yesterday and Today" section.
For  "Mountain Spirits Are Resurgent in Modern Korea"  see:

Unfortunately, these articles seem to no longer be reachable on that site.


There have been interesting interviews with me about San-shin on KBS Radio,
KBS-TV, MBC-TV and Arirang-TV, that were posted on their websites, but they
are no longer there.  I'll get digital versions of them up here someday...
New 2010 weekly series of articles in the Korea Times newspaper, on the
greatest Icons of Korean Buddhism, sponsored by the Jogye Order -- to
be collectively published as a book that'll be distributed at the Seoul G-20
Summit in November.   The essays are linked HERE.
