SUMMARY:Meet Muriel Murch, author of Harvesting History While Farming the Flats at Point Reyes Station, CA
DESCRIPTION:Muriel Murch, in conversation with Jeff Manson, will share her new book, Harvesting History While Farming the Flats at The Dance Palace Church, hosted by KWMR and Point Reyes Books Bookseller on March 23rd from 2-3:30pm. Her writing weaves a rich tapestry of community, family, agriculture, medicine, international filmmakers, rural life, and creativity, all radiating from her family’s home on Gospel Flats in Bolinas.\nBooks will be sold at the event.\nEVENT LOCATION:\nThe Dance Palace Church\n503 B. Street\nPoint Reyes Station, CA  94956\nAbout Harvesting History While Farming The Flats:\nBlending the themes of family, farming, and filmmaking, Harvesting History follows Muriel Murch’s journey from Los Angeles to West Marin, where she and her husband, filmmaker Walter Murch, settle on a farm. Here, their life intertwines with a changing community, organic farming, and the Bay Area’s burgeoning independent film scene, including interactions with key figures from the independent film movement, including George Lucas and Francis Ford Coppola, close friends and collaborators of Walter.\nMurch reflects on the cycles of nature, community resilience, and a simpler, sustainable way of life, contrasting it with the fast pace of Hollywood and urban development. The book is a poetic tribute to both the land and the bonds formed through shared values of preservation and creativity.\n\nAbout Muriel Murch:\nMuriel A. Murch was born and grew up England. In 1965 she married Walter Murch in New York City and they motorcycled to Los Angeles, California, relocating to The Bay Area in 1969 where Murch began working as a nurse-midwife in the rural medical practice in Point Reyes Station serving Marin and Sonoma Counties. Initially part of KPFA-FM’s Drama and Literature Department, Murch brought her radio experience to KWMR, helping develop a platform for local voices and cultural programs. Highlights include interviews with prominent figures like Sir David Attenborough, whom she hosted at both KPFA and West Marin Community Radio, bringing his work on The Private Life of Plants to local audiences. She continues to biweekly produce A Letter From A Broad for KWMR.org and her website murielmurch.com. She lives with her husband in Northern California and London.\n
