Share the honest and straightforward story of this wife and mother as she turns actress, "following her bliss" to include two Off-Broadway runs, and continues today as a touring actress at age 90. Readers are laughing out loud- and shedding a few tears- at her "down home" style of revelations. And they are likewise inspired to write their own stories as she describes leading Story Circles and "Our Own Stories" workshops. The New York runs of her 1-woman show "Ivy Rowe," adapted from Lee Smith's (no relation) prizewinning novel Fair and Tender Ladies, have led to 30 years of touring with other shows as well. The past 15 years of shows have been blessed by the addition of musician/manager Jeff Sebens. Onstage leading roles in regional theaters have been as diverse as "Hamlet" and "Wit" (Pulitzer Prize winner by Margaret Edson). Barbara's own stories are told in "The C-Word" and "Clergy Wife."
