New Book Provides Behind-the-Scenes Look at 25 years Off-Broadway, Opera at LaScala, and Lyons including the Kennedy and Lincoln Centers as well as International Productions
For anyone who has ever dreamed of directing plays or staging operas, this book is a must-read. Mr.Quinn has worked with first class writers and opera conductors including luminous names such as Frank McCourt and Claudio Abbado. Daniel P. Quinn has documented his agonies and ecstasies in the world of the arts while making his dreams a reality.
– Davidson Garrett, author of King Lear of the Taxi
MONTCLAIR, N.J. – In his new memoir, Exits and Entrances: Producing Off-Broadway, Opera & Beyond: 1981-2006 (published by AuthorHouse), Daniel P. Quinn takes readers on a guided tour of his prolific career as an actor, director and producer through "a series of journalistic snapshots in a scrapbook of theatrical adventures."
Lively articles, letters and other documents MERGE into a personal narrative, Exits and Entrances constructs a detailed, behind-the-scenes look at the challenges and successes Quinn experienced as he managed to create 25 years of working off-Broadway and beyond.
Exits and Entrances includes articles that originally appeared in Performing Arts Journal, The Herald News, The Italian Tribune, Sensations Magazine, Theatre Journal and the Audiophile Voice among others. Published letters from The New York Times, photographs and production documents such as posters are reproduced as well.
Quinn’s career has spanned the productions of such notable shows as the U.S. premieres of Stone, Derek and other works by British playwright Edward Bond, the world premieres of Sacco & Vanzetti by Daniel Gabriel, Away Alone by Janet Noble, and Two and Twenty by Paul Parente, and revivals of The Women of Trachis by Sophocles, and works by Seneca, John Maguire (1877), the controversial Black Jesus Passion Play in 1997 and 1998, and composers such as Stephen Foster, Hanns Eisler, Louis Morreau Gottschalk, Kurt Weill and Hector Berlioz. Quinn received The Short Play Festival Award for his work as producer on Two and Twenty, and The Irish Institute Award for Honesty Is the Best Policy. Diary of a Madman received a Best Actor OBIE as well.
Quinn is also the author of organized labor: Collected Poems (published by AuthorHouse), which achieved notable coverage on National Public Radio, The Village Voice, The Coast Star, The Bergen Record, and The Italian Voice. The poems in organized labor have been called "poignant and alive," "wonderful," and "refreshing."
Quinn has also appeared on The Today Show, ABC News, NBC News, at the Torriano Café in London and the White House Poets Café in Limerick, Ireland. His articles on opera and classical music have appeared in numerous publications, including National Public Radio in Southampton, NY and L'Italico.

Scribblers’ Retreat is a non-profit organization established with the goal of reaching writers of all ages; to inspire and promote their hidden gifts and talents.
By involving the local community, authors, publishers, editors, journalists and all forms of the literary world, we are opening their minds and bringing hope where there was doubt.
Scribblers’ Retreat is not the typical classroom setting. It was designed to bring world-class authors, literature professors, editors, journalists, illustrators, photo journalists, proofreaders, publishers, publicists, screenplay writers, and website/graphic designers, etc. one-on-one with young and old alike. It is the opportunity of a lifetime for someone who has had a manuscript in a desk drawer for 40 years or who has an outstanding poem that simply must be read.

I definitely appreciate the invite. I will be sending you my first novel titled, "OUT DA HOOD" to be reviewed shortly. I've heard nothing but good things about Apex Reviews. - Seymour Angles
My book, "Fear of Writing: for writers & closet writers," has been around for 8 years now. I will be interested to study your Website and see if an "old" book like mine can be helped by your review service. Thank you for the invitation. - Milli

I want to do this. I just need a few days to get junk cleared out and off my desk. Remind me if I slip up. May it go well with you. Alaska Jim on temporary assignment in the desert.
Log on to www.kevinfulton.net and view my Profile / Blogs that are posted on various social websites. My most recent article of interest is posted on, " FACEBOOK ", and addresses my personal concerns of growing up in a dysfunctional family, and an issue I have with these " FALSE STORIES / BIO'S ", from so-called authors with stories of the " HOOD LIFE ". In addition to that check out the Blogs and Short Story, that are community based articles inspired by real life experiences from a man who has seen and nearly done it all. Look forward to hearing your reviews soon, I am, "THE MAN WITH THE UNBREAKABLE SPIRIT ".
