1. Who can I talk to about Eugene O'Neill? We want to write a biography of him and we need to find a person who can tell us some more information other than what the internet tells us.

Wow. I have several that might work. Your library may have a copy of Arthur Gelb’s expansive biography on O’Neill. This is probably the greatest single source of information, and would have everything that anyone could tell you. Gelb is a great friend to the Center.

2. We want to designate a part of the site for special alumni. It will be a "hall of fame" for the O'Neill Center. Who can we contact about the alumni? Who can tell us about some famous people who may have went to your center?

Not sure we’d want to do this. We need to talk on our end.

3. Who can we talk to about places of important on the O'Neill campus? The Monte Cristo house is included but we want to include more information about the campus.

Great idea. Either myself or Sara Qua, Development Director can help you with this. Ask away.

4. Have the directors featured in biographies on the site changed?

Most definitely yes. Amy is still here, as is Tom. Richard’s needs to be revamped, as his position has changed. Also, I will be added to the list as well.

5. What is the best method of contact? (phone, email) When is the best time to contact? Who do we contact?

Email is great, though I’m happy to talk on the phone. Tomorrow is no good for the phone though. Thursday or Friday might work. 860-443-5378 x215

6. What is the cost of each of hte conferences and institutes?
I don’t think we want to highlight this. Let me get back to you.

7. Whenw as the O'Neill Puppetry Conference started?
I believe around 1990/91. I will have to double check. Give me till Thursday on that.

8. Did the Music Theater Conference start in 1978?
Yes.

9. What are the specific awards given to the music theater conference?
The Holof Award is given to the best Lyricist in the Music Theater Conference.
