Other fun facts about me:
Since I can't come to the reunion, here is the rundown of the last decade--I'm cutting and pasting this from my "bio": Ryann is the Harper's Guild Award-Winning lyricist and New York City-based writer/producer of theatre and film. Her lyrics have been heard on the hit theatre series, The Battery’s Down, (Ghost Light Records) along with Pulitzer & Tony Award winners, and Rosie O'Donnell's Sirius Satellite radio show.
Her musical VOTE! (which takes place at a fictitious version of GVHS and features a Ms. Fowler character) premiered at the Minetta Lane Theatre Off-Broadway in 2009. In addition to VOTE!, Ryann and collaborator Steven Jamail are the artistic directors of littlewowproductions, currently developing three new musicals: Nicholas & Alexandra, Tercio de Muerte, and Curious Johnson (the Toothfairy musical).
Her work has been performed throughout New York & Los Angeles including the Zipper Theatre, Theatre Row, Upright Cabaret, and Joe’s Pub at the Public Theatre as part of the Composer Exposure series. She has been a guest speaker at Emory University, Rice University, and Indiana- Bloomington, where students workshopped VOTE! in 2009.
Her Broadway production credits include Spring Awakening, Sweeney Todd, Company & Will Ferrell: You're Welcome, America.
She holds a degree in English Literature from Rice University and will begin her work towards a PhD in creative writing at the University of St. Andrews in Scotland in September 2010.
