y life in the arts
started in the backyard, putting on shows. My friends
and I would always invite our parents (the folks with money and guaranteed
positive reviews!), raffle off whatever we could scrounge up, then spend
all the profits on a cast party at the local diner. I was sure I’d
be in the movies, but in high school I was distracted from the arts by
the civil unrest of the 1960s and became involved in a Civil Rights organization
for teenagers.
After graduation I entered Loyola University to study political science, then switched to Columbia College to pursue my passion for dance, film and writing. I couldn’t decide if I would save the world, or make the world my stage! The arts won out: I was a professional dancer, choreographer and teacher for seven years until back and knee injuries sidelined me. Since my hands still worked, I said, “Okay, I’m a writer.” For the next 13 years, I made my living writing scripts for documentary and industrial films — about subjects as diverse as child abuse, wild turkeys (the bird not the drink) and financial planning.
My films won plenty of awards and paid well, but all the while I was
pulled by two old flames — the desire to “put on a show” and
the need to help foster communications on social/political issues. Then
one day, during
my next stint as a public speaker and TV host, I watched a storyteller
perform — and my whole being responded with a resounding, heart-pounding “yes!” I
immediately started writing and telling stories about
the issues I cared about. My two worlds had finally come together…
And although my life might still appear fragmented – in one week I might perform for a class of six-year olds, teach at a major University, and give a keynote address at a corporate conference – it is all of one cloak to me now. I am blessed with the opportunity to express our oneness and offer a multitude of unique ways to celebrate our differences, reveal our similarities, heal old wounds — and have fun doing it!
Well, that’s my story… for now. I hope this catalog of products, services and suggestions provides you with the human resource tools, innovative solutions or unique gift ideas you’ve been looking for.
- and, most of all, confirm that we all have so much to offer each other.
