Michael Susko, a founding parent and educator at a progressive elementary school, taught within a model that integrated the arts and sciences. His familiarity with symbolism stems from leading workshops on dream interpretation and teaching courses such as Personal Archetypes of Western Civilization and The Sacred Art of Indigenous Cultures. These varied experiences—paired with a lifelong interest in myth, consciousness, and story—helped inspire this first volume in a visionary series, A Couple Through Time.
