I worked for several years organizing, directing or producing shows for high end humanities and academic based organizations. I was awarded the Richard M. Ford Award for Excellence in Writing from US Poet Laureate Charles Simic, and a National Humanities Award for a team of people I worked with on a Socratic Discussion group with NPR.
