Bio:
Lee Clippard is the director of Austin Samba, which he has been a member of since 2005 and director since 2017. His passion for Brazilian percussion was ignited in 2002 in Madison, Wisconsin, where he joined the Handphibians. Prior to that, he played brass instruments in middle and high school and with the University of Texas Longhorn Marching Band. He has attended several California Brazil Camps and has been fortunate to travel to Rio de Janeiro several times to study percussion and culture. When not leading Austin Samba, he is director of communications at the Lady Bird Johnson Wildflower Center in Austin, Texas, where he loves dancing among the wildflowers. He sometimes plays the role of botanist or entomologist on TV. He cherishes spending time with his daughter, hiking with his dog, swimming in natural springs and creeks, camping, expanding his mind and traveling.
