John Ridge, son of a Cherokee leader, finds himself at odds with the Christian values he's learned at a New England school. They don't align with the realities he's come to observe: racism and attempts at sowing tribal division. The strength and hope in narrator Cameron DelGrosso's voice gradually fades when Ridge returns home and the brutal seizure of Cherokee lands begins. DelGrosso skillfully navigates the many Cherokee phrases throughout the story, bringing authenticity to his performance. His portrayal of John's white wife, Sarah, is especially strong as he captures her moral conviction and love for her husband. This splendid saga is rooted in the historical events that led to the forced march known as the Cherokee Trail of Tears.

As an actor of over 25 years of experience, my playful engine is harnessed in a dynamic dance of soul and logic, freedom and discipline, truth and imagination ~ always seeking to raise the quality of the experience for all involved.
I am, at my core, a lover of people and thus a lover of story; and therefore, a story-teller. I love to explore the various threads of the craft, the dance of narrative in the voice, the body, the spirit, and the community to which all seem drawn in some form or another. There’s a sacred quality to the work that underlies the experience; the embodiment of our shared narrative, our shared struggles and flourishings. I find bliss in treading those waters, working in collaboration with the minds crafting the shared worlds being dis-covered and shared.
It is my mission to craft not only the character(s), the narrative(s) or the story; but the quality of the experience of building it, refining it and sharing it. When the meal is cooked with love, it can’t help but taste more fulfilling.
