Welcome!

In 1972, the summer after my first year in the MFA program at the University of Minnesota, I signed a contract with the touring company Shakespeare in the Streets.

I was thrilled!  Besides playing Beatrice in MUCH ADO ABOUT NOTHING, Sylvia in TWO GENTLEMEN OF VERONA and Maria in TWELFTH NIGHT, I would be paid $10 a performance, making this my first professional job and deeming me a professional actor!

We toured six states and Canada.  We did 100 performances.  I came back with $1000, the most money I had ever made in a summer job.

In 1973 after completing my Masters and accepting a contract with Meadow Brook Theatre, I joined Actor's Equity on August 1, my mother union.

I am now in my 51st year as a professional actor.  I can hardly believe it!

I invite you to explore my site through the years. It's been a marvelous ride that continues today.

You can also visit and interact with me personally on my Facebook fan page, on Twitter, at Instagram and on my YouTube channel.

Thanks for dropping by.
