Highland Park resident Janea D. Harris is making her debut with Short Story Theatre with her story “Guilt and Gratitude,” a personal account of being blessed with the strength to move beyond fear while balancing the intense guilt that followed.
Lou Greenwald, another Highland Park resident relates his story – “Childhood” – and illustrates how beginnings last forever.
Bob Meyers, a Deerfield resident, shares his story “Mistakes Always Happen.” It's about how seeing the big board at the USAF Norad command center in Colorado Springs years ago changed Bob's life forever.
In his story “Take Me Out to the Ballgame,” Larry Glazer of Glenview recalls how he proposed an offer no woman could refuse.
Liza Blue, aka Elizabeth Brown, a Lake Forest resident, remembers how a major job “opportunity” became available. Her story: “Vindictive Soccer Mom.”
