who is Salem?
Hello there! I'm a poetic little dude who normally resides in the Catskill Mountains, from where I've self-released two albums and am known for making history by playing Pepper in "Mamma Mia!" at The Phoenicia Playhouse (2018). I also recently co-recorded the audiobook for "A Million Quiet Revolutions" by Robin Gow, a prose love story between two trans boys who name themselves after two trans Revolutionary War soldiers. When I'm not onstage, I'm hosting "Gender Blender" - an LGBTQ-centric radio show of my own creation - at WIOX Community Radio (on 91.3FM in the Catskills).
Offstage I am a proud (but not always successful) plant dad, an avid knitter, a Jewitch (Jewish witch), and a flaming scorpio. I'm a seeker of the truth, and a believer that theater can help to heal our world.
