Mark Hein, a poet and painter, began making art on a fog-swept hill in San Francisco. After traveling the world, raising a family, and working as a teacher, journalist, and psychotherapist, he makes art in a wooded canyon in Los Angeles.
My life in theatre began when I was 12, but I didn't try writing a play until I was 30. Since then, I've written them as they've arrived (which isn't terribly often)... I like telling everyone (actors, director, audience) only as much as they need to start their own imagining - and then being surprised by the results.
