Mr. Hoffman, designer for advertising, entertainment, commercial and residential environments, began his career creating product shots for consumer product print advertising.
May 17 – Dr. David Meyer, President & CEO of LA Biomed, will present The Microbiome. More than half of your body is not human. The bacterial and fungal cells in your gut outnumber the human cells in your whole body by at least two-fold, or perhaps as high as ten-fold. What are they doing there? This lecture will focus on the “human microbiome” and how 21st century medicine is going to have to adapt to this new reality.
May 24 – Don Christy – “Hey Baby, What’s Your Sign?” – This astrological adventure will cover: What is Astrology? How do people use it? How can I get in on the fun?

May 30 – Bob Saman – Everything You’ve Ever Wanted to Know about Hummingbirds but Were Afraid to Ask. Bob is the owner of Wild Birds Unlimited in Torrance and will give this special presentation. After Bob lost his job of 23 years as a civil engineer consultant, he had a vision that he would find a new profession involving, birds, kids, nature, photography, and the environment. Bob and his business partner, Debbie Shewfelt, have turned the Torrance store into an unofficial school for bird information, bird watching, wildlife appreciating, and preservation.
