ABOUT ART…The legacy is really the lives we touch, the inspiration we give, altering someone’s plan – if even for a moment, and getting them to think, rage, cry, laugh, argue…walk around the block, dazed…(I do that a lot after seeing powerful theater!) More than anything, we are remembered for our smiles; the ones we share with our closest and dearest, and the ones we bestow on a total stranger, who needed it then, and God put you there to deliver.
