I'm an actress, director, acting teacher & writer. My books THE ACTOR'S CHEKHOV & TOWARD MASTERY focus on the work of the late, great Williamstown Theater Festival director extraordinaire Nikos Psacharopoulos -- and the great American actors who worked with him. I'm interested in all things having to do with acting on stage and in film, and in theater art & management, and the creative process in all arenas. Visit my Workroom (aka website/blog: jeaniehackett.com ) where I post regularly about art ideas, challenges, vision, process & intentionality. My posts run the gamut from the practical (audition skill sets) to the pure (what great acting looks like, feels like) to the meta: TALENT & PERSONALITY is the title of my next acting book. I love to respond to and hear from other artists about the creative journey we share. Follow me on twitter @jeaniehackett & Facebook, you guessed it, "Jeanie Hackett". Yes, my books are published under Jean Hackett, which is what my parents named me. But even they call me Jeanie, like everyone else. Look forward to connecting and crossing paths, in cyber or in person.
