Testimonials
Gail thrives on collaboration. She has an innate appreciation
for diversity, for the ways in which varying opinions can provide the
spark necessary to set the world on fire. This quality is, to me, a big
part of what makes her both a true artist and a great and memorable teacher.
- Chris Tebbetts, author and former Managing Director of the Green Mountain
Guild
The ease with which she worked with each of the participants
in a collaborative and creative spirit, as well as the quality and impact
of the final product just bowled us over. Her genuine warmth, respect,
and, I would add, playfulness, brought the best out of all of us and this
shines through.
- Lise Moisan, tribute video client
I so enjoyed and appreciated watching you as a teacher who
is clearly delighted with the creative capabilities of the class members,
open to their surprises, supportive of their struggles and focused on
making it work for everyone.
- Judith Chalmer, Executive Director VSA Arts of Vermont
Gail is both passionate about and highly skilled in engaging
authentic communication. I have witnessed Gail’s command of the
stage and seen her perform humorous, tragic, even mundane characters,
all the while connecting intimately with her audience. She is a gifted
artist with great heart-felt intelligence.
- Devora Neumark, Performance Artist/Faculty Member, Goddard College
[People] of all ages enjoy working with Gail because she is
personable, enthusiastic, approachable, and willing to listen to their
ideas and input. She has a special ability to create an atmosphere for
students to take risks in the area of drama and music. I would highly
recommend Gail for a position that is connected to an educational setting,
whether that would involve young children or adults.
