Page iii About the Author Bonnie Bekken has been the editor of Career World and Writing! magazines, has taught in elementary and junior high schools, and currently is editor of guidance and career development materials for Social Studies School Service in Los Angeles. She has written career columns for national syndication and won several awards from the Educational Press Association of America for excellence in educational journalism. With capabilities in voice and violin, her earliest career aspirations were directed to the performing arts in general and musical theater in particular. A corresponding love for language lead her instead to journalismand the music of words.

Page iv Acknowledgments Without the support and encouragement of Lawrence Alan, this book could not have been. I am indebted to Joyce Lain Kennedy, nationally syndicated careers columnist and forever friend, for her words of wisdom and for convincing me to take an assignment that proved to be vastly rewarding. Special thanks go to Geraldine Keams, who directs the American Indian Registry for the Performing Arts. Both actress and educator, Ms. Keam's generosity of spirit and insightful contributions are cherished. A debt of appreciation belongs to Dr. Kenneth B. Hoyt, distinguished professor at Kansas State University and former director of the United States Office of Career Education, for his comments and critique. I also wish to thank Dr. Darryl Laramore, author of Careers and coauthor, with Joyce Lain Kennedy, of The Career Book. Dr. Laramore is a leading light in guidance and career educationand one of the finest human beings I know.

Page v Many have given their thoughts and their time. My thanks go to Denise Aguirre, Karen Mitchell, and Kay Roskam for their assistance in defining music therapy; Madelyn Berdes, my favorite "Phantom Dancer"; Mary Tokita and Michael Hackett, for their contributions to the UCLA Lab program, and to this book. The staffs and members of many associations in the arts deserveand havemy appreciation for providing resources and suggestions. Thanks, too, to Michael Urban, tireless editor. It is my wish that this book meet the expectations of all of you who assisted in its production, but, in the end, I hold the responsibility for its shortcomings. May you find them few.
