Video of arts hearings available

The first video segments of today’s House Education & Labor Committee hearing on the arts, economy and employment are now available at the links below. The testimony by actor and Creative Coalition representative Tim Daly(brother of Tyne Daly)  is especially thought-provoking. He points out the vital relationship between the arts and new media technology – including all the jobs and revenue technologyrepresents -  by saying succinctly: “Without art, there’s no iPod.”
