Beauty, Art, Community: What’s Your Three-Word Portrait?
January 25, 2010
I think I can summarize myself with three words: beauty, art, community. Here goes: Beauty breathes through me and I bask in its diffused expansiveness. Beauty is everywhere.

Paris is Dead, A Play in Three Acts
December 3, 2008
