Artistic Statement

From THE RUTLAND HERALD, Mar 4, 2016 - By Joanna TebbsYoung
"Jean Yeager is a deep-thinking, dry-humored, spiritually-minded, and fabulously unique writer. His subject choices are often unusual and his metaphors always creative. He makes connections between things many would never think of (for example, I recall in one writing session he wrote about a “gravel pit wound”)."
"But best of all, he’s an incredibly likable man. And he’s not afraid to investigate more deeply who that man is, what he thinks, and what he believes. ... For a few years now, he has been asking himself three simple, but difficult questions - Who am I? What do I want? Why am I here?... His whimsical, political, personal, funny, and always profound answers to those questions are now the basis of his first published book, 'Th3 Simple Questions: Slice Open Everyday Life.'"
