ACTING SUMMARY

My professional acting career began in the Philippines in 1983 and has spanned performing on 3 continents, 17 years of which were in French speaking Europe.   The majority of my  acting and directing has been "on the road" in an eclectic range of venues:  theatres, schools, universities, retirement homes, youth camps, half-way houses, prisons, US military bases, forests, hospitals,  psychiatric clinics and châteaux.  And yes, many of my roles have been in French.
