About Me
- JUDITH
- I'm also known sometimes as Kate. I've been active in L.A. theatre for the past - well, MANY years - as a producer, director and actor. For the past ten years, I have also been busy producing and directing plays and musicals at the Hollywood High School Performing Arts Magnet. I am almost finished with a novel I've been working on for the past century and I am starting yet another play. In my spare time (?), I work out at the gym and go to dance class. My husband, who is a very cool piano and guitar player and computer guy, is from Tunis and is patiently trying to teach me French - Mon Dieu! I've studied the piano for seven years with a lovely and equally patient teacher from England named Julia, and three years from another piano teacher named Eric. Still playing the piano, but have picked up the guitar and trying to learn that on my own, with a little assist from George.
