Wendy Pirsig was for thirty years an archivist and writer featuring extensive web-based history for the small Old Berwick Historical Society’s Counting House Museum in Maine. She’s a student of Myozen Joan Amaral at the Zen Center North Shore in Beverly, Massachusetts. She’s done extensive work for Cuke Archives on verbatim and minimum edit Shunryu Suzuki lectures and carefully scrutinizing DC writings and making sage suggestions. A few years ago she compiled and edited a posthumously published book of her late husband Robert Pirsig’s works: On Quality: An Inquiry Into Excellence: Unpublished and Selected Writings. Listen to our podcast and read more about her including a long piece on her and Robert’s six weeks with the SFZC following the murder of her stepson Chris in the neighborhood.

We are continually working on improving the quality of transcriptions of Suzuki's lectures. After a new "verbatim transcript" is made, we create a minimally edited version which is more readable. See the most recently completed transcripts at shunryusuzuki.com/n. For more on the Cuke Archives Project see cuke.com, cukenew.blogspot.com and ShunryuSuzuki.com. Contact: .
