THE BASICS:
What do you do at Smith?
Production Coordinator for Theatre
Department,
and Producing Director for New Century Theatre, a Smith Summer
Program.
How many years have you
been at the college?
16 years.
What is your busy season?
The beginning and end of each
semester is the most busy time. April is a gauntlet of activity.
NOW THE FUN STUFF:
Who gets the most face
time with you?
At work: staff colleagues in
the theatre department and our theatre majors. At home: my
kids.
What are you reading
now?
Lots of plays for New Century
Theatre's 2007 season.
What is your favorite
movie?
Too many to choose just one,
but here are three: In the general, all-round, good movie
category, Grand Canyon; current favorite, Prancer;
favorite classic, In the Heat of the Night.
If you suddenly had two
hours of free time, what would you do?
If the weather was good, probably
hike outside. If the weather was bad, probably cook something.
What is your favorite
wall hanging at home?
My father's etching of our family.
Do you vote?
All the time. Twice, if I can
get away with it.
If you could live during
any period in time and in any place, when and where?
I would have loved to see some
of the Group Theatre in action in New York during the ’30s.
Who does the work around
your abode?
My wife and I share just about
every chore imaginable -- except maybe home repair and car
care (that's me).
Is there any time in
your life you wish you could do over?
Heck, working at college makes
me wish I could do college all over again. I would be much
more daring in the courses I would take. I would have done
more internships.
What did you do before
you came to Smith?
Actor, director, graphic designer.
What single piece of
advice would you give to graduating Smithies?
Single practical advice: don't
get married for at least five years. Give yourself time to
explore the world. Single inspirational advice: Stay involved
in what excites you even if you have to volunteer to do it.
