Spring has Sprung and Fran is blossoming!

April, May and June offered many exciting projects to stretch my time and talent.  Mike Lyons, Silver Model /Chelsea Talent Management always tells me, “You’re INGING!”  (agent translation:  “You’re doING.”  It’s true.  It’s wonderful to feel the blossoming effects of embracing opportunities and delivering in the room.  JUST DO IT!

fran-winkOn the Red Carpet with First Online With Fran
As a classroom teacher/professor of English & Theater Education for over 30 years I have witnessed firsthand the transformative powers of The Arts.  To raise awareness of the vital inclusion of The Arts in our culture, I created  First Online With Fran.  As its Host/Producer I feature ordinary people doing extraordinary things in The Arts.  At the 2015 SOHO International Film Festival I  got to ask the official participants and attendees (Donna McKenna/CD, Noli Paumog/Founder SOHO Film Fest, Joseph Halsey/Actor, Jaiden Kaine/Actor, Deborah Twiss/Actor, Anthony De Lioncourt/Director to mention a few) how the arts play a vital role in our society. Listen to their inspirational comments on the above reel. And if you would like to share YOUR story with Fran, then contribute your testimonial to The First 100 Stories!

Elite Daily Shoot
I have an incredible amount of sympathy for anybody who has to deal with an overbearing boss on Instagram, but I feel especially bad for anybody who has to deal with a boss who manages to be just as invasive outside of social media. I sincerely hope nobody reading this has to deal with somebody like this, and if you do, words can’t describe how sorry I am. Thank you director Kevin Losani, David Potvin, producer/DP and Mr. Insta himself David Wayne Fox for a fun professional shoot!
