My poetry has been published in several journals, and set as art song by composers Jake Heggie, Juliana Hall, David Hanlon, and Jamie Leidwinger. My English opera adaptations include The Bartered Bride, Hansel and Gretel, and Arizona Lady. My original libretti are the children’s opera Listen, Wilhelmina! and the chamber vocal work Texanische Liebeslieder, both composed by David Hanlon, the filmed opera Interstate with co-librettist Jennifer Cresswell, and the opera The House Of Yes, with co-librettist Michael Kelly and composer Kamala Sankaram.
