He was born in Galveston, Texas, grew up at Mission Beach, lives in Dana Point and started the area&#8217;s first surf camp at San Onofre. He&#8217;s made several trips to promote surfing between Israelis and Palestinians, hoping to plant the seeds for a less violent Middle East. The movement he&#8217;s founded, called Surfing for Peace, has attracted the support of eight-time world champion surfer Kelly Slater, who has Syrian ancestry. He takes surfboards and Slater provides lessons, with one aim: Finding a way to bridge the gap between two warring peoples.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><strong>[Link: <\/strong><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.voiceofsandiego.org\/articles\/2008\/01\/26\/news\/docpaskowitz012608.txt\" target=\"_blank\">Voice of San Diego<\/a><\/strong><strong>]<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Voice of San Diego interviews Dorian Paskowitz about his life, health and Surfing For Peace: Sit back and hold on tight.
