Presenting a Master Class in Heidelberg, Germany.

What an opportunity, to work with and teach at Tony Award winning director/choreographer AnnReinking's summer workshop.

I taught the Hagen Exercises. Faculty included Broadway's tap wizards Gregory Hines and Savion Glover.

Without the energy of Truthful Human Behavior, blocking/staging is just pretty pictures.

I'm really a very funny guy!

What an experience to work with Impresario James A. Doolittle on the production of the Joffrey's BILLBOARDS ballet with music by Prince and then Baryshnikov's White Oak Dance Project.

The joy, the power, the mastery of craft by these artists. Here is where technique FREES the artist. A lesson there for my students.

Working with the young cast of an orginal teen play written for the Ford Festival of One Act Plays, Heidelberg, Germany.

I assisted Impresario James A. Doolittle on the production of this exciting three company series at the Dorothy Chandler Pavilion in Los Angeles.

The ETA Festival at the University of Nebraska where I taught the Hagen Exercises. Young actors auditioned for scholarships at universities and colleges from across the United States, such as USC, SMU, NC School of the Arts, Universtiy of Minnesota-Guthrie Theater, Marquette and Loyola, learning that this Art is a competitive business.

I assisted The Cayman National Cultural Foundation on the country's first live televised theatrical production.

A fabulous theater complex and yes, beautiful 7 Mile Beach. All work and no play, remember?...

HB Studio, NY.

I rode the A Train from 185th and Ft. Washington Ave down to 14th Street every week to study with Master Teacher/legendary Broadway actress Uta Hagen.

Walking those streets, with the wind blowing off the Hudson, the leaves sailing about, actors carrying Macy's bags full and ready for a class presentation: you knew you were in NY, and you knew you were alive.

As the Festival Guest Director, I had the once in a lifetime honor of directing Lanford Wilson's GREAT NEBULA IN ORION for the dedication of the Sanford Meisner Center in N. Hollywood, CA., and thus working with legendary Master Teacher Sanford Meisner and his protege, Martin Barter.

It was quite an experience to have Sandy, one of the most famous Master Teachers, watching rehearsals. How can one not wonder what such an artist is thinking as he watches your creative work from the back of the darkened theater, but on opening night his strong handshake and gleaming eyes showed all his appreciation for our work. A wonderful memory for me. And I've been invited back to direct.

Sandy's students include Robert Duvall, Grace Kelly, Diane Keaton, Lee Grant, Gregory Peck, Joanne Woodward, and Peter Falk.

I've presented workshops at the ETA Festival at the University of Nebrask for three years, and I have taught such talented, driven, focused young people, the future of our Art/Business.

Of all our presentations with Mr. Doolittle and the SCTA, this may be my favorite.

The artistry, the command of craft rivaled the great ballets and yet the work was so approachable, so much a part of our experience as people.

Onstage with CHICAGO HOPE's Adam Arkin in SORROWS OF STEPHEN, directed by Broadway director/actor Alan Arkin, at the Jupiter Theater.

I was Alan's assistant director and understudy to Adam, as well.

A marvelously entertaining spectacle.
