I have had a thirty-year career at the university level teaching acting, directing, and writing. I held a full professorship at both the University of Connecticut and Brandeis University where I was the Sachar professor of Theater Arts. My teaching philosophy is based on a close one-on-one relationship with each student. It is my intention to discover and develop those unique strengths and skills inside each student that will help them tackle any subject whether it be in art, literature, or life.
