Debra's Story

American Intercontinental University 2004-2006 Masters edu CandidCreation glamourPhotos 2003/05 ClarkeAmerican-ChkPrinting1990-2003 Syracuse Stage 1973-96 Metro Scl for Arts 1978-96 Salt City Playhouse 1973-90 Syracuse University 1973-75 BS 1st childhood memory is going to kindergarden at Audubon Elementary in a white dress to be thrown out when I got home, because Greg Tomhave hit me with a stone and broke my nose on the 1st day of school and I had a black eye. My first school buddy was Cindy Bowls because she felt sorry for me that day and became my friend. I hope old friends remember me as the writer and poet, the artist and theatre person who did school recordings for English classes, was on stage crew for all major events since jr high. The exotic dreamer drama queen. My best friend would describe me as over talkative and no one can get a word in edge wise...but thoroughly entertaining but most people thought I was the quiet shy type. But I am still basically a hippie and now that styles are back Im fitting in again,,,, Lots of awards and trophies from best all around Theatre to Top sales awards that have taken me to Disney World and Cancun, California, and Vegas. If I knew back then where this crazy theatre bug would take me, I would have just settled in colorado to be a teacher. Would have been so much simpler...Not as much fun but simpler and more money in it. I'm re-beginning after heart attack stroke, and cancer so I am leaning to appreciate 55 ALIVE! I blow off steam through swim therapy twice daily. but I relax through reading a good book.In ten years I hope to be still running my youth theatre for CNY Community and maybe by then with a profit!!! The wildest thing I remember from school is taking apart Mr Funks Volkswagon and putting on roof of school, but at prom nite Drama group went as ...Expand for more
ghouls and monstors ie like Bride of Frankenstein...We were still in prom clothing just with a few additions like vampire teeth and stage blood!! Strangest job I ever had was as Filbert the Squirrel hired by Geo w. Bush himself for Silverado Savings to store up nuts for the winter....and I got chased through mall by hoodlums and kids trying to pull my tail off! When I was unemployed and had to make a living I became costumed characters to deliver telegrams flowers etc at which time Bangles the Belly Dancing Clown was born in harem outfit and covered in bells I was infamous for almost 20 years throughout Colo, Virginia, and New York. My hero is probably Wonderwoman comics-wise or Gloria Steinham in real life. I have 1 son, now 29 has been married 3 times and is working on his 4th because nobody commits to anything nowadays. He has 2 little girles each from a different Mommy Makes it hard on me because I have go around arranging play dates. Skyla is 6 and will turn 7. Jazzell has just turned 4. I would love to see Homer Paris again because he was my mentor in son many ways. If I won $100 million I would buy building for my youth theatre and spend the rest on working at it. I have one cat George currently although on the farm we had whole variety of everything including ducks that sat on the roof. I'd like to reconnect with close friends again but especially my ex-husband Kevin to work out whatever stupidity got in our way. That is what I learned from my kid... I still write. Lots of poetry and short stuff published all over but nothing major. Primary goal is getting back to what I love doing the youth theatre. Going back for a do-over in 2009-10 to re-discover my youth theatre and what I like doing best...because if at first you don't make money enuf to live on you keep trying to keep the dream alive!!
