I am the Assistant to the Artistic Director of Off-Broadway’s award-winning Mint Theater Company, where I have assistant directed Katie Roche, Mary Broome and Rutherford and Son. We are one of the only theaters in the world dedicated to producing lost or neglected plays, most from the first half of the twentieth century. I have worked extensively on our online Production Archives and with professional videographer, Joshua Paul Johnson, who helps us document production footage as well as select post-show discussions we call "EnrichMint Events." Because we do plays that have been so long ignored, we also act as advocates for their ongoing life in the professional and academic world. Therefore, documenting our work in the digital age is of great importance to us. Also, I don't play Galaga, but I assure you my score would probably be terrible.
