Representing Yourself kicks off this series of Destination DIY series of hour-long shows that push the do-it-yourself envelope beyond crafts and home improvement. This episode takes a look at all kinds of self-expression, from representing yourself in court to telling true stories on stage. We also explore the way tattoos represent a part of the self.
Segment A: DIY legal defense, representing yourself in a job interview and a walk through the park to ask people, "How do you represent yourself?"
Segment B: What tattoos represent about people and one man's compulsion to tell true stories from his dating life on stage.
Segment C: Self-portraits and an interview with one of the notorious Guerrilla Girls about representations of women in the art world.
Host name: Julie Sabatier (suh-BAH-tee-ay)
