communication skills with sign language at the San Francisco Zoo.


Today Koko the Gorilla lives in Hawaii and says she would like to raise a family. (Really, she speaks through sign and is still in the care of reknown anthropologist Penny Patterson.) Mr. Berman is an active Psychotherapist practicing in San Francisco.



Dec. 1995..."I was having dinner at a friend's house when I noticed this page...What fun it's been cruising through your photos.  I remember visiting Hank with Ken and Mithra (my son) and having a picnic lunch with Koko."...Helen Green
