First let me say that I am not a professional writer, although I have written a couple of screenplays and even sold one some years ago. I am however a professional actor and a member of the screen actors guild. The only reason I used the rather short bio until now was ignorance. I write for personal reasons and never thought that anyone would really care or bother reading my 'stuff'.
That said, I have taught film acting, traveled continuously for about forty years, work presently as a dog behavior/trainer and am an avid political junkie.
I find the direction of our country alarming and am determined to do my bit to fight the corporate takeover of our political system. I am a true independent looking for a cause... until then, I donate and volunteer for progressive candidates and drive the Tea Party types crazy on Facebook.
Although I am not sure I remember it exactly, my favorite quote is from Albert Einstein... "Great spirits will always encounter violent opposition from mediocre minds".
