Post published:November 18, 2016 I’m woefully behind on “Roanoke,” so I can’t carte blanche, blindly back this opinion– but I do appreciate this journalist’s call to “just bring Pepper back? Please?” http://bloody-disgusting.com/editorials/3414777/best-episode-american-horror-story-everything-roanoke-failed/
Post published:November 17, 2016 SUCH a sunny reception at SUNY – The State University of New York, Cortland. (And these were just the hard-core mischief-makers who came for the show, stayed for the all-night Q&A, then just about convinced me to crash someone’s dorm for the AHS season finale!)
Post published:November 16, 2016 So many “likes” re: reprising my play– you’ve certainly given me a lot to think about! In the meantime, for those who have connections to colleges who might be interested, here’s a one-sheet to pass along. Reviews/stills/clips available at naomigrossman.net/Carnival_Knowledge.html.

Post published:November 13, 2016 Aaaaaand that’s a wrap on “Short Straw!” Special thanks to the beautiful and talented Elaine Hendrix (FX’s Sex&Drugs&Rock&Roll, The Parent Trap, etc). She saw me in a gallery, then put me in her movie!

Post published:November 11, 2016 #TBT: my view from the plane, leaving Stockholm on Monday. Tuesday I was glad to be back, as I was welcomed home to a sunny, 94 degree, LA-day! Wednesday the future looked less bright… though the sun did, in fact, come up, as Obama projected. Today, I dunno… Just reflecting on how much one’s outlook can change in a week. Also, I miss Sweden. Talk about Stockholm Syndrome.
