Uri Shulevitz: Hi, my name is Uri Shulevitz. Uri is pronounced like Murray without the M. Uri was the name of the father of the first artist in the Bible. Uri means "my light" in Hebrew. When I was an infant in my crib I stared at the flowers on the wall paper. When my father saw that he predicted I'd be an artist. I didn't want to prove him wrong, so I became an artist.
