CURRENT MISSION

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.

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
