About Freddy Zental Weaver
Freddy Zental has co-led creative self-discovery seminars at the Institute for Creative Living in Los Angeles, San Diego, San Francisco and
Hawaii. He employs the approach of “Creative Self-Discovery” as developed by psychiatrist and author, Fred Weaver, III, M.D.
His career spans from serving as a district wide human relationship counselor in the Los Angeles Unified School District in his early career to being in software sales with Fortune 500 corporations to becoming an accomplished performing artist touring the United States with his one-man show Sexual Enlightenment which lead him to embark on developing himself as a singer.
Freddy Zental always wanted to sing. However, he was told at an early age that he couldn’t. In the early 2000 he was fiercely determined to learn to sing for his one-man show and today, after years of great voice coaches, regular open mic performances and serious practicing, he is proud of having made his debut into the Chicago Jazz scene.
