Baritone Robert Peavler serves as Professor of Voice at Eastern Michigan University and is the
founder of North Star Music. He has written a book on the songs of Poulenc which no one knows
about, recorded a cd of American art song which no one listens to, and published a series of
American art song anthologies which everyone loves! At home, Robert is a father to two amazing
kids, a husband to an incredible singing, piano playing wife, and tries to keep the dog from
constantly growling at sounds on the TV.
