No Mistress of Mine

Acknowledgments

Some books need lots of research. Fortunately, an author can always find generous, enthusiastic people willing to help. For this book, I had two experienced actresses to help me with all things theater.

First, my thanks to professional actress Traci Lyn Thomas, who answered all my pesky little questions about auditions, rehearsals, and performance, and who explained to me in depth just what the differences are between producers, backers, and directors.

My thanks also to local artist and actress Bonnie Peacher for reading the final manuscript and verifying that I got the acting vibe right.

My heartfelt gratitude to both of you.
