Lisa Rhyne(I)

She was born in Belleville, Illinois which is on the Sacred Native American lands of the Cahokia Mounds. Cahokia Mounds was designated a National Historic Landmark in 1964, and listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1966. Cahokia is a World Heritage Site designated by UNESCO. When her parents divorced, Lisa and her mother lived in North Salem, Indiana which is a tiny farm town of about 400 people out in the cornfields.

Lisa's thirst for knowledge, insatiable curiosity, high IQ and propensity to speak her mind led to good grades, great boredom and trouble with authority figures - especially in school. This free spirit was (and still is) resistant to the institution of traditional schools because they do not honor or cultivate individualism or the arts. She was an honor student and received several scholarships and grants so she chose to go to Ball State University. Lisa did the work equivalent to two degrees in four years receiving a Bachelor of Science degree in Telecommunications/Theatre. She also studied sound engineering with a minor in applied physics (skipping the first two years jumping into the junior level applied physics classes).

Upon graduation, Lisa moved to Nashville, Tennessee. First doing an engineering apprenticeship at Ronnie Milsap's studios then working for an independent record promoter on retainer with all the major record labels. She has been a promoter, consultant and worked with the biggest legends in entertainment including Garth Brooks, Dolly Parton, Willie Nelson, The Highwaymen, Crosby Stills Nash & Young, Bill Monroe, Vince Gill, Rodney Crowell, Roseanne Cash, k.d. lang, Lyle Lovett, Dwight Yoakam, Chaka Khan and many many more. She then moved to New York City and later to Los Angeles to pursue her own career interests, which included numerous acting, modeling, voiceover, singing projects as well as writing work. She has appeared with Hank Williams, Jr. in his Monday Night Football videos, was a guest correspondent on A Current Affair as well as a featured guest on talk shows such as The Phil Donahue Show, Eye to Eye with Connie Chung, The Maury Povich Show and CNBC's America's Talking. The Oprah Winfrey Show asked Lisa to appear as an up and coming actress/model/singer, which she did in 1993.

Lisa's desire to create and write more positive projects led her to officially create The Dream Masters in 2000 which has evolved into a company that provides a variety of services focused on transformational work including writing and producing film, TV and live events.

The Dream Masters® and META-CON® were created by Lisa Rhyne to be a vibrant intellectual forum for the exploration of humanity's potential and evolution. We are influencing and creating the future with each and every thought. When we connect we are transformed. As we begin to consider and carry forward our higher functions in art, science, education, values, ethics, spirituality, and most importantly, the evolution of both our individual and collective consciousness, we become more than we ever dreamed.

The Dream Masters® explores the capacity of human potential beyond current believed boundaries. Media is a powerful tool with the unlimited potential to reach everyone both in a timely and timeless manner. Artists play a crucial role in all aspects of creating "reality." The quality of life is changed by and through art because it is a non-exclusive and all-inclusive form of creation and communication working on multiple levels vital to...everything.
