Summary: Between lunch and dinner on a fateful April 20, 2002, Eric shifted from eating Double Barbecue Bacon Cheeseburgers, dairy ice cream, and New York-style pizza to being vegan, and he hasn’t looked back since. Web-based video played a crucial role in his transition, and he hopes his new documentary web series, I’m Vegan, will become a useful addition to internet-based advocacy. Prior to producing and directing I’m Vegan, Eric co-founded the Boston Vegan Association www.bostonvegan.org, which fosters, supports, and educates Boston’s vegan community, and advocates veganism as the only consistent way to commit to the belief that it is wrong to cause unnecessary harm to animals. Eric is also the co-founder and co-owner of Peace o' Pie, a popular vegan pizzeria that opened in Boston late last year (and is very delicious, we might add!). You can learn more about Eric at: www.vegandocumentary.com, www.bostonvegan.org, www.peaceopie.com. As always, all questions are welcome.
