December 01, 2015 – Canada has a long history in pipe making;  Roy Brigham, Julius Vesz and Phillip Trypis are just a few of the names that spring to mind.  But there is a new bunch of young guns taking the pipe world by storm, and Bowmanville Ontario’s Michael Parks is at the forefront of this movement.  Michael is a pipe artist, trained in fine art at the Ontario College of Art and Design.  Originally a sculptor of decoys, Michael fell into the pipe business by chance; he is now considered one of the world’s top five pipe makers.  His work is in demand all over the globe, so much so that Pipes & Tobaccos Magazine commissioned him to craft their Pipe of the Year in 2014.  Duck Hunter, pipe craftsman and Renaissance Man – any of these terms apply to Michael.  Listen live as we profile his rise to the top of the pipe world!
