Love weaves the fabric of your dreams. My metaphysical bloodline flows from Bertold Brecht and Antonin Artaud. My mom, Eleanor Valko Ciongoli continues to inspire my work. When I can focus, and it's not so easy, I am writing an Italian -American opera . When I am not dreaming, I am writing plays--- When I am not writing plays, I am dreaming. It's often hard to tell these activities apart.
