Michael S. Weber, "Sherbert" was born and raised near Grand Rapids, Michigan, USA. Michael is a published picture book illustrator (Magination Press and Hachai Publishing), and a BFA graduate of the Chicago Art Institute. Michael once knew the privilege of working (as a general assistant) for Richard S. Barnes, who was the nephew of Charles M. Barnes, founder of Barnes and Noble. Richard (now deceased) was a literary scholar. Michael lives with his life-partner Marian in rural Michigan.
Michael's storytelling qualifications stem primarily from his father, Martin, who was, in a grounded and earthy sense, an exceptional showman. What Michael's father and then his friends have helped him to appreciate is a life-perspective that he has attempted to project within Muzakio by reducing its story telling elements, concerning that which is good and that which is bad to music and noise. What!
