I wrote my first play in tenth grade in high school in Virginia for a playwriting class.  I took playwriting again at Virginia Commonwealth University.  A Chocolate Chip Romance started as an autobiographical drama but ended up a satiric comedy.

I was a theatre educator for more than 36 years .  My second year I produced three of my one act plays.  Directing at school and elsewhere plus acting in addition to teaching full time kept me very busy.  My first year of Graduate school I had a staged reading of an original script.

I have been writing more and more the last few years.  A bulk of my scripts I have for educational theatre.  I took a screenwriting class not long after I moved to California 30 years ago.    Except for my own productions at my school I have never actively pursued  production or publication.  Now that I have retired finally have time to devote to my writing.
