MORE ABOUT ME
For all of the actors I have met in theater and and writers with whom I have worked, there is never just one moment that is the most memorable, gratifying or life-changing. Neither is there only one thing to know about anyone. We are all a multiplicity of our life’s events. For those of us over a “certain age” there are so many events, experiences, in our lives that constitute our reasons for continuing writing (whether for the theatre or other genre) that one cannot pull a single moment out of the hat. Was it the moment when at lunch Maya Angelou asked me a question? Was it when a student understood a simple direction? Was it when I think I got a character just right? Far too many answers to too many questions. Why do I keep on—yes at this age? Because I have to. Because the characters, the moments keep speaking.

WHAT I'M WORKING ON
Just finished recording a recent play, Friends and Family. It questions: what makes a friend or family and can riffs be repaired?
