By supporting and influencing their families and communities,
grandparents--and those who act as grandparents--can play a key
role in today's society. Their special mission is derived from a
strong sense of purpose and direction that develops from making
significant contributions to family life. These include compiling
and recounting family histories, maintaining meaningful
relationships among different generations, opening up family
communications, explaining social changes, and participating in
community life. With the aid of real-life examples of
intergenerational family dynamics, the author--a clinical
sociologist who has practiced family therapy for more than 25
years--presents principles, techniques, and perspectives for
today's grandparents.

Paul Gemignani is one of the titans of the modern musical theater
industry. Serving as musical director for more than forty Broadway
productions since 1971, his collaborations with Stephen Sondheim,
Andrew Lloyd Webber, John Kander, Fred Ebb, Hal Prince, Michael
Bennett, and Alan Menken have led to countless accolades for his
collaborators, but due to the near invisible position of the
musical director in the Broadway industry, Gemignani's story is
often overlooked. GEMIGNANI seeks to not only bring the reader into
the orchestra pit to learn Gemignani's story, but also to educate
the reader about the crucial role a music director plays in
bringing some of the most iconic musicals in Broadway history to
life. Born into a second-generation Italian American family during
the aftershocks of the Great Depression, Gemignani worked his way
up from playing percussion in USO bands to conducting before
Leonard Bernstein, all before becoming a pivotal player in the team
that brought some of the most successful musicals of the late
twentieth century to the stage. Sweeney Todd, Evita, Merrily We
Roll Along, Sunday in the Park with George, and Into the Woods
would be quite different without his key contributions, and many of
the sonic markers we now associate with the postmodern musical
theater can be traced to Gemignani's careful curiosity to expand
the bounds of what was possible.
