Dear John,

I'm so excited to see you next week at the Berkeley fundraiser! Just had
dinner with Ms. Carolyn Wu.

Please, please watch at least the first few seconds of the amazing 4-min
TEDxSanQuentin promo that our incarcerated marketing team put together...

Next week, I'd love to take you to San Quentin if you have a spare hour and
interest  (I've been trying to get Tony to prison for years :-)

San Quentin is the Harvard of the CA prison system and only a level 2
facility.

Our host for the Berkeley fundraiser,  Alex Busansky, is the fiscal sponsor
for my TEDx prisons project and has been to The Q with me twice.

Bryan Stevenson's talk at TED changed my life and I've spent the last 3
years in 13 state prisons across the country, helping them organize TEDx
events to build safer and healthier communities.  A collaborative endeavor
of prisoners, guards, wardens, cops, judges, victims, prosecutors,
philanthropists, community members, etc.

Most amazing thing I've ever done.

And, strangely, I've become friendly with Bob Rubin through this. He's
speaking at our event in San Quentin.

Anyway, I've worked extensively with state heads of corrections in WA, CA,
OR, PA, DE, and LA. If you ever want to visit a prison and meet amazing
incarcerated individuals, I could help arrange it. Two prisons near
Seattle, San Quentin in San Francisco, a prison in Philly, SingSing in
upstate NY, Angola near Baton Rouge, and Ironwood (border of CA and AZ)
where Richard Branson spoke about second chances and hiring felons.

Anyway, I thought I'd reach out and say hi...and hope you might have a
moment to tour the prison with me, meet the incarcerated TEDx team, do a
quick interview with the SQ Newspaper and the San Quentin Prison Report
(radio and video distributed through SF NPR affiliate.)

Probably not an invitation you get every day :)

Looking forward to seeing you soon!
