Guest guest Posted March 23, 2002 Report Share Posted March 23, 2002 Dr Brent graduated from medical school in 1963. Got his board certification in plastic surgery in, I think, 1978. After some searching I found that info on the web.... I notice that he doesn't provide dates on his website. I was also intrigued to learn that he is an artist (self-taught) and sculptor....there are a couple of websites with illustrations of his work and I also ran across a reference to a book he has illustrated. Very talented man! Makes perfect sense that he is a sculptor -- sculpting ears and sculpting other objects.... --Connie WAAAY behind on this list but wanted to jump in with this as my curiosity had been aroused by the discussion about Brent's age...

Guest guest Posted March 24, 2002 Report Share Posted March 24, 2002 Hi, All! I tried posting this earlier but it didn't go through so I am trying again.... I am away from home at the moment and don't have a lot of time to catch up with so many posts, but just wanted to say that one day out of curiosity about Dr Brent, I looked on the web -- his own site doesn't provide dates but I found elsewhere that he graduated from med school in 1963 and was board-certified in 1978 (I think that's the date). I also was amazed and intrigued to learn that he is also an artist who has done many sculptures and also has illustrated a book! There are photos of some of his works on the web.... A very talented man, indeed, who sculpts both the human ear and various artistic objects. Hope this helps! --Connie > Dr. Brent didn't seem all that old when I met him last year.

Guest guest Posted March 26, 2002 Report Share Posted March 26, 2002 FYI, there is an animal bench sculpture in the children's section of the SF Zoo that Dr. Brent did. I think it's a hippo? I asked him why the interest in sculpture, taxidermy, and building miniatures and the gist of his response was that anyone who wasn't any good at those delicate arts didn't have any business trying to build something as complicated as an ear. Sheri his work is breathtakingly beautiful. i've been to the galleries in new york where his works were shown. he's done birds, hands, hippos, some life-size. he's gifted...(i'm biased: i still think my son's ear is his best work!) the works are VERY expensive!

Guest guest Posted June 28, 2002 Report Share Posted June 28, 2002 , Is it the Discovery Channel or The Learning Channel? I actually spoke with the folks at the Learning Channel a couple months ago, from the show called " A Personal Story " . They wanted to do a story on Evan and his upcoming surgery but they were done filming the season in June and Evan's surgery isn't until July. She also told me that they had done stories with Dr. Brent and Dr. Reinisch. She did not know when they would air however but they are for the upcoming season.

Guest guest Posted July 7, 2002 Report Share Posted July 7, 2002 My parents have a search programmed into their satellite TV receiver to record this, I'd be happy to send out tapes copies when it is finally played. Just in case the word " ear " or " brent " doesn't appear in the program description, when someone knows an exact broadcast date, please let me know.
