Author Talk — Muriel Murch

Harvesting History While Farming the Flats

Blending the themes of family, farming and filmmaking, Harvesting History while Farming the Flats follows Muriel Murch’s journey from Los Angeles to West Marin, where she and her husband, filmmaker Walter Murch, settled on a farm. Here, their life intertwined with a changing community, organic farming and the Bay Area’s burgeoning independent film scene.

Murch’s writing weaves a rich tapestry around medicine, agriculture, rural life and creativity, all radiating from her family’s home on Gospel Flats in Bolinas, Northern California. Murch is a co-founder of KWMR community radio, and continues to produce ‘Letter from A. Broad’ biweekly for the station and on www.murielmurch.com.
