Michael G. Burbank has dedicated his life's work to making Tibetan Buddhist culture more widely accessible to his and future generations through his work at the Dalai Lama's Cultural Center in America, Tibet House US, and its Menla Mountain Retreat (www.menla.us).The graphic artistry in Man of Peace was a team effort of five artists coordinated by master artist/designer Steve Buccellato of Legendhaus Studio in Los Angeles.
