Country singer Kathy Mattea tried a new vocation on for size on December 2 when she presented An Inconvenient Truth, the slide show about global warming put together by former Vice President Al Gore, at Lakeview High School in Battle Creek, Michigan:
"An audience of some 250 people was viewing a picture of Earth snapped by the Voyager I spacecraft from the edge of the solar system. What they saw was a pinprick of light just barely distinguishable in the grainy image.
'That's our home,' Mattea said of the tiny speck, her voice choking up with emotion. 'That's why this is so important.'"

Kathy Mattea makes her Celebrity Series debut with a concert at Sanders Theatre in Cambridge on February 3.
