Mike Rader has lived all over the United States and abroad. After serving four years in the U.S. Marine Corps as an infantry officer, he decided to pursue graduate study in natural resources. Having many lines in the water, Dr. Rader, sits down (virtually) with Carter and talks about his research on forest biodiversity conservation in Nova Scotia and nest predation and bobwhite population ecology in south Texas. Before coming to Stevens Point, he spent almost ten years working in conservation law enforcement for the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources, with many ('North Woods Law' like) experiences. Mike's multi-disciplinary background has led to broad professional interests in conservation law enforcement, human dimensions of natural resource management, human-wildlife interactions, and wildlife habitat ecology. Listen carefully as Dr. Rader gives influential advice on what becoming a conservation law enforcement officer may mean to you!

30. Not Having An Idea IS An Idea - with MIKE RADER

M.R. Potato Head Painting #23Mike Rader is a mixed media artist working in film, animation, painting, sculpture, printmaking and drawing. Often mixing all of these elements into one work, he creates a creative playpen to flesh out an area of interest. Mike chooses his mediums by need rather than passion by asking the question of which medium will best articulate his current creative curiosity. Mike's work often reaches back into the past to create a dialogue with memories, while bringing influences along the way and reinterpreting them into the present. Past works include works which used the following as catalysts: Charlie Chaplin, Ultraman, and Godzilla. Mike is currently working on a film influenced by the relationship of the Three Stooges' personalities and how those different aspects combined and individually relate to the creative process.His works have won the Vanguard Award for Best Experimental Film (Art of Brooklyn Film Festival), Best Art Direction (Manhattan Film Festival) and the Merit Award (Lucerne Film Festival). Mike Rader’s works have been shown in museums and galleries internationally including The Carnegie Museum of Art, the Andy Warhol Museum, the Toledo Museum of Art, and the Hefei Museum of Modern Art in China. Rader has recently installed a permanent public sculpture in Newark, New Jersey and has just completed an artist residency in Tao Hua Tan, China.
