Donald's Story
Life
My Spouse
Rhonda and I dated throughout my senior year (her junior year) at BCC. She tried to cut in front of me in the lunch line, but I wouldn't let her. She sat with me at lunch that day, and I asked her to a party for that weekend. We dated for four years and have been married for 37 years in August, 2008!
We lived and worked throughout Europe for 30 years -- England, Switzerland, Holland, Germany, with extended periods of time commuting Monday through Friday to Italy, France, Belgium, .... For the last 10 years I configured and negotiated large, multi-national I.T. services contracts. A vicious, nasty thing to do for a living, but it paid well and I got to live in a lot of great places, do a lot of wonderful travelling, and learn a lot of languages.
In 2004, we moved back to the U.S. -- Boulder, Colorado, because we could. In 2006, I retired from the business world and started a new career as a playwright and author. ...Expand for more
I've had 4 productions of my works in the last 18 months, and another is scheduled for the summer of 2009. A humorous book that my son, David, and I wrote about a two month backpacking trip through the Alps in the summer of 2007 will be published in the autumn of 2008. Google "Don Fried Playwright" for my contact info and news on my production and publishing activities.
My Kids

Both of them were professional actors while they were in school in England, Eric starring in a television series for three years, and David appearing in the theater in the West End of London.
