I am an award-winning Connecticut playwright whose 10-Minute works have been staged across the country. I have also written five full one-act plays.

I am a theater critic with the Outer Critics Circle and the Connecticut Critics Circle.  I also operate the 24/7 online Broadway radio station, SoundsofBroadway.com, featuring the best from Off-Broadway, Broadway, and London stages. My ‘On Broadway’ podcast features conversations with figures from the world of music and stage.
