Haleh Liza Gafori is a vocalist, poet, recording artist and educator. She has a book of her own poetry she's published and most recently she has a new book out called Gold (fresh translations of poems from the 13th-century Sufi mystic, Rumi) Haleh opens our eyes to a way we might use these poems as portals – into a way of being, into a way of listening and being present in this world. She takes us to the heart of what Rumi was pointing at with these words.
