ADVOCACY

In addition to her work as a playwright and performer, Nora has enjoyed a decade-long career as a theatrical redistributionist. In other words, Nora has worked in fundraising for a number of non-profit performing arts organizations and spent years gathering resources from foundations, corporations, and major donors and reallocating those resources to artists.

Currently, Nora serves as the Development Manager for Breaking the Binary, an award-winning theatre company dedicated to developing new work and building community with transgender, non-binary, and Two-Spirit+ (TNB2S+) artists. She also fundraises and advocates for artists on a project-by-project basis, either as a paid consultant for a flexible fee or just as a comrade who's in it for the thrill of supporting subversive art.

EDUCATION

Nora's other great passion is teaching. In recent years, she's worked with students at the college level as a guest artist at two universities, where she collaborated with young theatremakers to bring new work to life, and as an adjunct professor, teaching Theatre History, Script Analysis, and a unique course called American Drama and the American Economy, which examined the impact of economic conditions on new play development over the last hundred years.
