Writer & Actor couple Lori and Tom Romero join the podcast

This one's a bit of a reunion as co-hosts Mark McNease and Rick Rose welcome Lori and Tom Romero to the show. We know these two creative people from our years with the Friends and Artists Theatre Ensemble in Los Angeles, somewhere in the 1980s.

 

Lori is a published poet, playwright, and fiction writer, and was nominated twice for a Pushcart Prize. Her writing has been published in more than one hundred journals and anthologies. She has produced, acted, and directed in a variety of theatrical venues in New York, Colorado, New Mexico and California. Lori's short screenplay, Strange Saints, won the Manhattan Short Film Festival's Scripts and Screenplay Competition. Lori made her directorial debut with her award-winning short film SURREAL ESTATE.
