Bill Brohaugh, Writer
Bill is the author of thousands of produced short-form radio scripts, written for the nationally syndicated radio personality Gary Burbank for 20+ years. The former editor of Writer's Digest magazine, Bill has authored published books and hundreds of magazine articles about writing and other topics, and spoken about writing many times to other writers.
Lisa Holt, Writer
Lisa is a retired pharmacist with a 40-year background in theatre. As a reed doubler, her focus is on musical theatre, where she performs frequently as a pit musician and serves as an orchestra manager. More recently she accidentally discovered she enjoys writing with Bill. The results of that prize-winning play collaboration have been fully produced or presented in staged readings on both coasts and many places between, which she thinks is cool.
Bill and Lisa are honored that A Light in Dark Places selected their work to help bring awareness to the impact and prevention of suicide through the accessibility of the performing arts.
