About Me

United States
Deborah S. Greenhut, PhD, is a playwright, arts documentarian, and educator who began teaching in a one-room school house in rural New England during 1970. These days you can find me collaborating with urban educators and students, seeking new ways to make education artful. I have consulted on management skills and communication arts in 44 of the United States and 5 provinces in Canada. I believe that people learn more effectively through drama-assisted instruction, and I exploit the Internet to deliver it. The views expressed here are entirely mine and not those of any other institution or organization.

DeSiCiTi Nominated for Best TV Pilot at the New York City International Film Fest

DeSiCiTi's Leading Ladies
Nominated for Best TV Pilot at the NYC International Film Fest, DeSiCi is a commendable TV pilot from Little Brown Girl Productions. It's Sex and the City with a sensitive cultural upgrade. Four South Asian women navigate the New York City roles they can play in this Bollywood-on-the-Hudson plus sitcom. The Desi aspect is poignant, laced with hilarious plot overturns that update the tried and true "That Girl" formula. Somebody give this pilot a greenlight, please?

Really? Award to Lego City

Is it me or are there no female people in Lego City? I found a nurse, a woman with a baby as the only likely urban dwellers in their catalog, and, oh, yes, there's a cowgirl named Jessie, but she seems to be the rural kind.

No wonder boys are busy smashing up the houses in Lego world. Somebody send them a copy of Gloria: In Her Own Words, please! Where did all the equal opportunities go?
