I've divided my adult life between teaching elementary school and professional acting. I'm located right outside Manhattan, so this afforded me the opportunity to do both careers. Currently I've retired from teaching and am enjoying acting jobs in theater and film. I am the Associate Producer of Fuacata Films. Our first award-winning film, "Cassanova was a Woman" is being released on cable and digitally , on October 4, 2016. Please look for it On Demand or go to www.fuacatafilms.com for more info. Poetry Soup is the perfect place to enjoy the beautiful art of poetry. I don't know how literary my poems are, but they're honest and filled with emotion, love, and light. I'm so excited to be a member of this wonderful community.
