Michael Cervin

Guides. Michael talks about Santa Barbara Vineyards and sites with Cruise Radio
Network host Bruce Oliver.
Michael Cervin is my guest from Santa Barbara, California. Before settling in
the coastal city of Santa Barbara, Michael worked as an actor in Hollywood. He
had guest appearances on several well known TV shows including: 3rd Rock from
the Sun, Grace Under Fire, The Young and the Restless, It’s A Miracle, and
others. But since moving to Santa Barbara ten years ago, Michael started writing
about the wine industry. He's been a wine, spirits and food judge for
competitions all over the
world including: California, Portugal, Puerto Rico and
Virginia. His articles on wine, food and travel have appeared in over 70
magazines such as: Decanter, Wine & Spirits, Wine Enthusiast, The Tasting Panel,
Santa Barbara Magazine, Westways, Skywest, and Juxtapoz . He is currently the
restaurant critic for the Santa Barbara News-Press. And Michael Cervin has
hosted the the award-winning "Around The World Radio" travel show. His radio
guests have ranged from Jonathan Winters to Dan Aykroyd, Mario Andretti, Gina
Gallo and other celebrities. In November, 2010, Michael's guest was the
Patriarch of the Mondavi Vineyards, Peter Mondavi.
Join Michael Cervin on my
radio program as we talk about travel to Santa Barbara's vineyards, restaurants
and sites. We'll also talk about his book "Santa Barbara & The Central Coast"
and is new book which will be released in 2011, "California Wine Country".
Cervin is passionate about the Central Coast of California and said this about
his book about Santa Barbara: “This is the most comprehensive travel book to
date covering Santa Barbara and Santa Barbara wine country, as well as Ventura
and Ojai in Ventura County, and Morro Bay, Cambria, San Luis Obispo and Paso
Robles.” And who could argue with him. After all the region is the host of these
sites and more: Mission Santa Barbara, Morro Rock, Hearst Castle, Bubblegum
Alley in San Luis Obispo, the Frog Wall in Santa Barbara, Ojai’s Pink Moment,
and Morro Bay’s Black Hill. An amazing area to visit and hear about.
