Ben Gundersheimer, M.Ed  (known onstage at MISTER G) is a Latin GRAMMY Award-winning artist, author, and educator. Hailed as “a bilingual rock star” by The Washington Post and “irresistible” by People magazine, Ben was originally dubbed MISTER G by his elementary school students while pursuing a Master of Education degree. He’s released fourteen albums of original music, which have been awarded the Latin Grammy Award and 5 Parents’ Choice Gold Awards. Ben tours internationally at major venues including Lollapalooza, Austin City Limits and the Smithsonian National Museum of Natural History. 

Penguin Random House has published four picture books based on his original songs with two more forthcoming. Señorita Mariposa, a bilingual telling of the monarch butterfly migration, is on its 18th hardcover printing from Penguin, published in paperback by Scholastic, and recently had its world theatrical premiere. Whether performing at the National Climate Rally or an orphanage in Mexico City, MISTER G’s dynamic, interactive performances aim to dissolve borders and foster cross-cultural connections through the power of story and song.

All ages welcome! Registration recommended.

Book purchasing will be onsite courtesy of Books are Magic.

Aviva & Friends is presented in celebration of Aviva Lipsky-Karasz and her joyful spirit. Her friends and family hope you enjoy the program.
