He was a dramaturg and playwright at Minneapolis’s Guthrie Theater in the 1970s; Professor of acting, directing, playwriting, and dramaturgy at Carnegie Mellon University in the early 1980s; Artistic Director of Pittsburgh’s Metro Theater; and Director of Duke Drama through 1991. His plays and adaptations have been staged at major regional theatres and Off-Broadway, including The Miser and Tartuffe for Tony Award-winning Theatre de la Jeune Lune. His Swamp Outlaw, a Civil War-era novel of Lumbee Indian Henry Berry Lowery and his outlaw raiders, is a Kindle favorite. He has had the privilege of working with director Dominique Serrand for 25 years. In a baffling (even to himself) career change, for 15 years David has been America’s most influential jury consultant.
