Heroes
My mom for her dignity and endurance. My grandmother Mary Gladys Parish, Texas grand dame and fellow INFP
Carl Jung, Viktor Frankl, and Joseph Campbell for their work in psychology, personal meaning, archetypes, story, and mythology.
Yes, I direct plays. Yes, I do Vintage Dancing. Yes, I do historical costuming. Yes, I blog. Yes, I am in love with story in all of its forms. Yes, I live mostly in my head. And Yes, I like it that way.
Outside of my head, though, I'm the Artistic Director for the Woodward Shakespeare Festival in Fresno and the Performing Arts Dirctor for the City of Selma. At home, I'm the primary care-giver to my chronically ill mom.
You Are An INFP
The Idealist
You are creative with a great imagination, living in your own inner world. Open minded and accepting, you strive for harmony in your important relationships. It takes a long time for people to get to know you. You are hesitant to let people get close. But once you care for someone, you do everything you can to help them grow and develop.
You would make an excellent writer, psychologist, or artist.
An accomplished diplomat who can virtually do no wrong, you sometimes know it is best to rely on the council of others while holding the reins.
There are some words which I have known since I was a schoolboy. "With the first link, the chain is forged. The first speech censored, the first thought forbidden, the first freedom denied, chains us all irrevocably." These words were uttered by Judge Aaron Satie -- as a wisdom, and warning. The first time any man's freedom is trodden on, we're all damaged.
Hello Heather..I love your pictures, you are so beautiful. Tina Killingsworth (remember her) well we email now, it's funny how people change but Tina is still the same sweetheart she always was...Tina may email you too.
Thanks Heather. I am tremendously proud of that cast. Feedback has been really good and I have to say I am pleasantly surprised that the show seems to be playing really well with the Visalia crowd. If you get a chance, you should come again in a week or two. They were battling a lot of nerves on opening (though they did a great job.) They just keep getting tighter and more natural.
Hola. Happy New Year to you and your family. My oldest daughter turned 12 yesterday...I am so old...email and let me know what all is happening with you..k..
You know, I've said (repeatedly) that I would love an occasion that required me to wear a turban. Well, with Halloween looming maybe I can find one at the costume store and wear it on election day.
I just saw a poster from the movie "first wives club" and for some odd reason it made me think of you brooke and rebecca. that's all. have a great day and all that!
