Carolyn Newberger is an artist, child psychologist, and musician whose deepest interests concern people and their lives. Her portraits in watercolor and oil have achieved recognition and awards in juried and solo exhibitions. Carolyn developed an influential theory of parental consciousness that continues to frame doctoral dissertations and efforts to prevent child abuse. Her subsequent research and teaching at Harvard and Boston Children's Hospital, and her ability clearly and soundly to address subjects like parental discipline, sexual abuse, and domestic violence, attracts respect and notice by clinicians and media alike. For example,she's appeared on the Oprah Winfrey show twice. Carolyn studied flute with the legendary masters Bernard Goldberg, Samuel Baron, and James Pappoutsakis, and she subbed with the New Haven Symphony while putting her husband Eli through medical school. Carolyn now performs with Eli and Mike Roylance, the Principal Tuba of the Boston Symphony, in the Cupcake Philharmonic Orchestra, a sextet that performs under the aegis of the community outreach program of the BSO. The Cupcakes feature performances of "Tubby the Tuba" in such venues as Ozawa Hall at Tanglewood in Lenox, MA, the Boston Public Library, and schools and art centers in Massachusetts and beyond.
