She has received the Atherton Award for Teaching Excellence and the College of Arts and Architecture Award for Teaching Excellence. As a sometime actor, her most recent role was Jean in "After Mrs. Rochester," at the University of Oregon in its West Coast premiere. She is a regular dramaturg; her most recent projects include "Mother Courage and Her Children" and "Pentecost." She is increasingly intrigued by the world of online teaching, after the successful launch and continued success of her Art of the Theatre web course.
