Back around 1999, I pestered my talented musical artist virtuoso guitaist singer songwriter friend Helen Avakian to move into the internet age and get a website. As she shopped for web designers, I was learning html and decided to do a relatively primitive site for her. At least that way, she'd have something. Helen did get some contacts from my site, but for a few years now, she has had a great elegant website designed by the Steves at TUNED-INweb.com .
I'll eventually expand the Terry Champlin sections. Terry (Helen's favorite husband) is a sometimes reclusive musical genius spending hours composing all times of day or night. So as he doesn't always find time to blow his own horn (well, he is a guitarist after all), there isnt' much on the web about him. But click on "Helen 'N Terry" below for a few pics... and some "bio according to pooz" info.
"Helen 'N Nien Cheng" is the most popular link, so I put that first. Ms. Cheng is around 90 years old now and living in the Washington D.C. area. She is the author of the best selling book "Life and Death in Shanghai" largely regarding her experiences in 6 years solitary confinement in China during the Cultural revolution. Helen's song "Drifting Days" is based on as section of this book. Helen and Ms. Cheng friends who are in fairly frequent contact.
