VOTE FOR VERMONT
GUEST:  DAN BARLOW, POLITICAL JOURNALIST, PUBLIC POLICY MANAGER OF VBSR AND CO-FOUNDER OF GREEN MOUNTAIN GRAVEYARDS
TITLE: POLITICS AND GRAVEYARDS

Politics and Graveyards…. An interesting topic for a show, don’t you think?  Pat McDonald and Ben Kinsley, co-produce and co-host a TV show called Vote for Vermont.  On a recent show they interviewed Dan Barlow, public policy manager for Vermont Business for Social Responsibility (VBSR).  He represents VBSR at the statehouse lobbying on such topics as health care reform, clean energy, and employment issues.  He was also an award-winning journalist.  But in his off hours he is the co-founder of Green Mountain Graveyards, a photographer and researcher devoted to telling stories about Vermont cemeteries.  This year Dan was among the 40 most accomplished young leaders in Vermont who were recognized by Vermont Business Magazine as a Rising Star for their commitment to business growth, professional excellence and their communities.
