Marylou’s Answer

I wanted to work in Theatre and Education. When I got to college, there was no major I was interested in. So I went to the chairman of the education department and the chairman of the theatre department, and asked them to make me a major, which they did! I was the first person to graduate from Villanova with a degree in Theatre/Communications Education in 1976, and have been a teacher and an actor my entire career. And happily have spent my entire career doing both.

With my experience in both fields, I was an adjunct at NYU, University of Pennsylvania, Baruch College, Villanova University, among others.

Great question. I say follow your instincts. If you work at what you love, you’ll never ‘work’ a day in your life.
