A poetic tribute to both the land and the bonds formed through shared values of preservation and creativity.

Blending the themes of family, farming, and filmmaking, Harvesting History follows Muriel Murch's journey from Los Angeles to West Marin, where she and her husband, filmmaker Walter Murch, settle on a farm. Here, their life intertwines with a changing community, organic farming, and the Bay Area's burgeoning independent film scene, including interactions with key figures from the independent film movement, including George Lucas and Francis Ford Coppola, close friends and collaborators of Walter.

Murch reflects on the cycles of nature, community resilience, and a simpler, sustainable way of life, contrasting it with the fast pace of Hollywood and urban development.

About the Author
Murch, Muriel A.: - Muriel A. Murch was born and grew up England. In 1965 she married Walter Murch in New York City and they motorcycled to Los Angeles, California, relocating to The Bay Area in 1969 where Murch began working as a nurse-midwife in the rural medical practice in Point Reyes Station serving Marin and Sonoma Counties. Initially part of KPFA-FM's Drama and Literature Department, Murch brought her radio experience to KWMR, helping develop a platform for local voices and cultural programs. Highlights include interviews with prominent figures like Sir David Attenborough, whom she hosted at both KPFA and West Marin Community Radio, bringing his work on The Private Life of Plants to local audiences. She continues to biweekly produce A Letter From A Broad for KWMR.org and her website murielmurch.com. She lives with her husband in Northern California and London.
