Diana Greenlee: Uncovering the Story of Poverty Point
More than 3,000 years ago, a Native American community in what is now Northeast Louisiana built monumental earthworks - such as mounds, ridges, and a vast plaza - at Poverty Point, now a UNESCO World Heritage Site. For nearly two decades, Dr. Diana Greenlee, station archaeologist at Poverty Point, has worked to uncover what life was like for the people who lived there so many years ago.
Hear Dr. Greenlee talk about:
Why he shares his music (even when it feels humiliating)
How he uses song titles and streaming platforms to get discovered
Why embracing imperfect work led to his most popular songs
The Motern Method: his creative productivity system explained
How he balances homeschooling, filmmaking, and songwriting
How making movies with friends helps him stay creative and connected
Mentioned in this episode:
“Every time I do some work there I think, this is the first time in over 3,000 years that somebody has touched this. That’s a pretty cool feeling.”
