Genni gunn biography of rory

UK based Rory Macdonald has been working full-time as an artist since completing his postgraduate Art History degree at the University of St Andrews. With both of his parents being professional painters, he has been taught to paint from an early age and has had the pleasure of working within that space growing up.

Rory's artistic practice fuses his formal art historical education and the traditional mode of oil painting in beställning to reframe Renaissance and Baroque painting in the twenty first century, displaying a slightly absurd and surreal sense of humour.

  Necessary Passions – Music to Language: a translation
  As an author/musician/translator, I have always been interested in the translation of poetry, a feat that requires the translator to possess an awareness of musicality in both original and target language. To musicians, music is a language, stored in the same part of the brain as the mother tongue, which in my case is Italian. Add to this a second language – English – learned before the age of seven, and also stored in the same area of the brain, and the result is three languages informing one another in the creation of an original text. This presentation will examine a personal, multi-disciplinary approach to creating a text by exploring musical forms and their transposition into language.

  The 'Gilmore Girls' Cast: Where Are They Now?

  Lauren Graham as Lorelai Gilmore

  Lorelai Gilmore was the definition of a "cool mom," and there was no one better for the role on Gilmore Girls than Graham. With her penchant for junk food, coffee obsession and quick wit, she raised her daughter Rory on her own after finding out that she was pregnant at 16.

  Following a Broadway debut in Guys & Dolls in 2007, Graham continued her streak of playing iconic TV moms when she took on the role of Sarah Braverman in Parenthood from 2010 to 2015. She has also starred in films like Evan Almighty, Because I Said So, Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs and Max. Graham did a stint on Curb Your Enthusiasm in 2017 and flexed her vocal abilities once more on the show Zoey's Extraordinary Playlist in 2020. Graham and her longtime partner, Parenthood costar Peter Krause, split after 12 years together in 2022.
