BREN Video Roundup

Tribute to Jennie Alexander (1930-2018)

07/19/2018

Like most people, we spend lots of time (way too much time) surfing the web, entranced by various videos. In Video Roundup, we offer some videos from all over the world that we found especially intriguing.

This week's selection focuses on Jennie Alexander, author of “Make a Chair from a Tree,” and inspiration for generations of woodworkers. Jennie recently passed away at age 88 and is the subject of this week’s entry on Joel’s Blog. Here Jennie demonstrates greenwoodworking - she preferred the single word - and another lifelong love, music.
