A Personal Note from Michael Twamley and Susanne Spirit! 

A passion runs deep within us beyond our greatest reasoning to make a TV series about the experiences we have encountered as Susanne sings her country music at the truck stops of America and I do all the sound and other crucial obligations of the gig, including set-up and all other technical needs. We have met the most wonderful characters and had so many days where when we get home all we can think is “Wow! Sure wish we could have shared our life today with the world. What a neat experience”. We have met the adventurous Highway warriors and all the elements that surround them. These people enriched our lives, which is what we know this show will do for all its viewers. 

Susanne has done a lot of professional theatre and “high-end” performances and things in her life, but when she goes home after a concert at a trucks stop, she says, “my soul is satisfied. I feel good!” For over a year we have been performing and doing the concerts at least two days a week and all holidays at the TravelCenter in Ontario, California – which is now the major hub of trucking. And each day never fails to bring new exciting and fulfilling journeys, which we now have to share with the world.

Funny, even when Susanne was little, truckers put peace in her heart, which is why I have helped her with this interesting journey. She states, “When I was twelve years old and running away from home, a supper club in the middle of nowhere in southern Minnesota where I lived with my grandparents, I walked to the nearby two-lane highway. A few hours later, not many trucks in the middle of nowhere, finally a big-rig truck came by and stopped for me. The guy let me in and we headed down the road.  I am thinking, “I could marry him, he’s kind a cute.” By the way, for a “child” I was pretty well developed. Anyway, he suggested we stop for a bite to eat. He convinced me I should go back home which also meant he had to drive back there which was about a twenty minute ride. That guy could have done anything he wanted with me. I was willing! But he didn’t. We even talked for a long while. He played me a song, Cotton Fields, on his guitar, creating magic for me. I thought he was famous or something. Little did I know!!! But he was special in my mind. I wrote a song about that moment. But he convinced me to stay home, leaving me with dreams he would come back one day when I grew up. That truckin’ man left quite an impression on me. But about a year and a half later, my grandmother took ill and died. And my grandpa sent me to California to my Mom’s. And he died shortly thereafter. That trucker gave me time with these loved ones. I am so grateful to that decent man".

 
And, Susanne continues her story, “On the trip from California to Minnesota to bury my grandpa my Mom and I drove. Well, without truckers we would never had made that journey. Then coming back, my Mom was driving a car that was to be delivered to California on a certain date. When I say we had no money, I mean it. Anyway, we were somewhere in Wyoming in winter and we were in a blizzard. I think there are other routes, but Mom was driving. So, we are in this truck stop. My Mom is crying. She will not get paid and we will be in trouble. Well, these truckers made a convoy. They put Mom and I in one of their trucks with one guy, they put the car in the middle with a trucker driving it and another big rig in the rear. It was a really bad storm. But they fed us a steak dinner (I was in heaven), had extra blankets in the truck and even a bottle of whiskey, in case, they said, we got stuck we would not freeze to death. And off we went. And, we made it!!!! God bless those men. And they wanted nothing from us. A very special moment for My Mom and Me, especially after what we had just walked through in Minnesota. Those guys were great". These stories gave me her passion to reach out to these people.

 
She also shares, “And, years later when I would visit my Mom who was now living in Ontario, California and the tension would rise in her home with her new hubby. Mom and I would go get “Pie” down at the truck stop, same one I am now playing, and we would sit, laughing and talking to all the guys for hours. One of the trucker’s would always insist to buy our food and I always went home feeling loved and great. In 1995, as I was graduating from UCLA’s School of Theatre, Film and Television my Mom died. During that year when she was sick I would be doing a big “Play” production in the city, but Mom would ask if when I was done if I would come out to the Legion Club or even the truck stop and play a few Patsy Cline songs for her. I did! And, I was being hired everywhere to sing my country music. When she died, I decided to move in her home in Ontario and just find peace. Life creates the path sometimes. I had to follow my heart. I still do plays and I have lots of further projects after we accomplish this one.” I hope these words from Susanne help you to understand why we have to complete this project and its richness and importance.  

Anyway, America’s two largest truck stops, where we play, and most major trucking companies are in Ontario, California, but the TravelCenters are located all over the USA and welcome us to tour at any of their locations.  We have now been performing the USA Road Show Tour for these folks, selling thousands of “Love My Truck Driv’in Man CDs and cassettes of Susanne’s original songs to them. They have funded events for “neglected” kids for us. Their generosity of spirit and love has carried us high during any dark times or hard work So, in our souls, we know we have to give back to these men and women that have brightened many a day for us and let America know these wonderful people by bringing their world into the homes of viewers along with Susanne’s sweet southern country music and other artists of our times. 

Susanne made films at UCLA that won honors. And, while she was doing her undergraduate work in theatre and film, she was granted the privilege of being in the Graduate Producer’s Program that Peter Guber chairs, Peter Dekom, Jeff Berg, Jeffrey Katzenberg, Sherry Lansing and other Hollywood “Movers” participated in her classes and lectures. Now she has chosen to make her professional producing/ directing/ creating and starring in this worthwhile project, putting her Galileo or Proud Breed film on hold. And I believe that this project will change the life of millions of people from the truckers, to the people that surround them to the hearts of viewers. 

This show will give many people something to really cherish and look forward to viewing each week and will renew the values of this country, something needed so desperately at this time in our troubled world.  Thank you for your help and sure hope we can get started!!  

The Goals:
To create a show that will reach national and international recognition and be on going for generations because we are capturing this moment in time of the roots of American music and life as it is today and bringing to the world unforgettable characters and stories. 
To blend the two “roots” of America, bringing the elements to the show of Susanne Spirit’s Country Music and Truckers, a natural combination. 

So let’s get going now.

Sincerely, Whiteline Productions!!!
