Bio
Having composed so many bios over the last 50 years, you would think I would have gotten better at it. Alas. Although I love to read, I am very put off by the act of writing—much less texting or tweeting, which have replaced telegrams. I did enjoy opening night telegrams, and have a few special ones saved. When it comes to “refreshing” my bios, I always find them inaccurate and incomplete—my mother pointed out that for far too many years, I included everything I did since before I turned professional—local theater and school plays, etc. This fall season, I will take a new play, “Downstairs,” by Theresa Rebeck to the Cherry Lane Theatre where I made my New York debut in 1966—maybe it was 1967. So, that feels like a fun circle of endeavors. In the half century in between… use your various devices, or read the list below.
