I have written a number of articles published in print and online in various technical journals.

Writing > Theater

My first full-length play, Mouhtbook, was produced by Brian Gaskill for The Rorschach Group and premiered at the Mint Theater on 43rd street in Manhattan, May 3, 1996. It was directed by Andrew Frank and starred Shea Whigham, Kirk Acevedo, and Sioux Madden.

A collection of short pieces written for one actor was subsequently produced in Brooklyn in July, 1996. That was fun.
