His 4th grade students dubbed him ‘Mister G’, and while teaching at the Smith College campus school, he began writing children's songs.

Drawing from an eclectic range of musical influences, The Mitzvah Bus (2015), Mister G's Jewish-themed album, spans genres from funk to folk and rock to ska, while the lyrics celebrate family, holidays, food, camp and language.

Mister G has toured widely, headlining venues such as Symphony Space in New York, The National Zoo, The Hard Rock Cafe in Philadelphia, The Getty Museum in Los Angeles, The Coolidge Corner Theatre in Boston, among many others.

Mister G also regularly conducts artists residencies for students and professional development workshops for teachers in schools in the United States and Latin America.

He has headlined four concerts on Capitol Hill for children and families from all fifty states in his role as an advocate for Moms Clean Air Force.

Two of his albums (Mundo Verde/Green World and Seeds of Shalom) have explicit environmental themes, as does his picture book (Señorita Mariposa) which is about the monarch butterfly migration.
