adam smith
I'm a writer and director, an award-winning performance artist, a theater and writing educator and an occasional sound designer/composer. I'm also one half of dance/theatre duo andersmith.
My work is low brow/brilliant according to New York Magazine's Approval Matrix.
I studied acting, directing, and writing for theater at Bowling Green State University. I wrote and performed with the New York Neo-Futurists for a few years, then started and led the San Francisco Neo-Futurists for a few more years.
