Len Blum visits Sauvé Scholars

par Marie-Marguerite Sabongui Boursière Sauvé 2008-2009

We welcomed musician-turned successful screen-writer-turned yoga instructor Mr. Len Blum into our kitchen last Monday. In our informal discussion, Mr. Blum emphasized the importance of telling a personal story in whatever you do- whether delivering a speech, writing a script or pitching a project. When asked what makes him tick Mr. Blum answered without skipping a beat, "friendship". For him, "playing well with other children" - or a real human connection to others - is what has brought him success in his career, motivation for screenplays, and fulfillment in life. It was inspiring for me, as someone who works in the industry, to find someone who insists on bringing heart into the business.
