  1. I was in the 1962 production; the things I learned from working with Lloyd Richards informed so much of my work after graduation; both as a director (The Festival of Light & Song) and as an actress, (Free Guy, Good Burger 2).
    I was cast as Mrs. Putnam, I’m told, primarily because I was the only one who he could hear during the auditions. I was way out of my depth, playing this older, very superstitious, mean woman. But I learned so very, very much. When I learned that Mr. Richards was teaching an acting course, I came back to SFA to complete my degree.
    I will always be grateful for this experience; without it, I doubt that I would have had the ability to form my own company, and direct it. Nor would I have found myself with a Fulbright in Bulgaria in 1987.
