I love the first movements of both his first and third piano concerto. But I don't know much about him personally. But he is still alive. So do an interview or something

I got a good luck to listen once a pianist played in my college, and so i find this composer. His piano sonata really ineteresting, not that kinda of sonata that you will fall in love in first sight, but listen twice you will find it ineteresting and so it hooks you..i seldom fall in love with modern pieces....LOL
At the moment i think i still got no chance to ineterview him. Anyone can help me?
