Current Projects
My work as an actor has afforded me an opportunity to play many different woman both fictional and non fictional. I am interested now in exploring the way Jewish women have been portrayed in theater, film, and literature. The voices out there that have shaped how Jewish women are viewed by others and view themselves. My goal is to create a performance piece based on my research.
