"Max's stories are great for college-age and adult audiences.
They recreate for me the Beatnik and Hippie eras."
--Ralph C. Morrison, storyteller,
"The Peddler of Encouragement
"Max Reif is an extraordinary storyteller with his tales about
social misfits, dysfunctional families, and flower children. His
stories are humorous, witty, and positive. Added sound effects and
original music by Jeff Williams, this little cassette is a breath
of fresh air."
--Christina Lord
CREATIONS magazine
"Max Reif is an artist with a number of talents...The stories
are word-paintings and range from the sparklingly humorous to the
satirical, highlighting the absurdities and the charms of the human
animal, but with his unique wit."
--Zerka Moreno
psychodrama specialist
"Max Reif has done it again--knocked our socks off with his
prodigious talent!...The production sounds like some classic drama
from the Golden years of old-time, big-time radio...full of quietly
and dramatically wonderful and sometimes winsome, cockeyed characters.
--Vicki Warner
THE WHITE HORSE JOURNAL
