About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Live and prosper.

ABOUT ME

I am an old American swashbuckler and professor of theatre and stage combat at the University of the Arts in Philadelphia, with a fondness for toy soldiers. I begin each one of the classes I teach asking my students if they have any questions on "Life and Art". I enjoy coffee and literature in the morning and believe in the authenticity of Shakespeare.

PHILOSOPHY

Epicurean.
