ABOUT THIS EPISODE
Bonsaigers Conversations – Episode 35 | Michael Hagedorn
In Episode 35 of Bonsaigers Conversations, we sit down with Michael Hagedorn to explore his journey through the world of bonsai — from how it all began to his experiences in Japan and the path that led him to become one of the most respected bonsai artists and educators in North America.
Michael shares stories about his time in Japan, the lessons and experiences that shaped his approach to bonsai, and how those influences have evolved within the North American bonsai community.
We also talk about life at his bonsai garden, how he manages his work and teaching, and some of the lesser-known and more personal episodes from his career. Along the way, we explore the connections — and sometimes the differences — between Japanese bonsai culture and the developing bonsai scene in North America.
A conversation about bonsai, travel, education, culture, and the people and experiences that shape an artist's journey.
