Dr. Patch Adams is an American clown doctor, some may remember the film about
him starring Robin Williams. Patch has for two decades been travelling the
world to inspire peace, love and unity. I had the pleasure to travel with Patch
to Russia in 2002 as a Peace Clown. On my return I reflected on how effective
clowning had been in creating unity and re-humanising people.
In Russia it is very cold and the people appear to not see you at all, except, well err when you are wearing a red nose and not from too much vodka. We clowned in orphanages, nursing homes, subways and on the streets.
So I'd like to thank Patch for allowing me the experience which inspired my
R.E.A.L. H.O.P.E. program and continuing my work for peace.
