As 2nd Story's Artistic Producer, Peggy works closely with the Artistic Director and the creative team on set dressing and the design and and gathering of props.

Peggy has appeared on-stage in several productions, including All My Sons, Major Barbara, You Can't Take It With You, and The Good Doctor. Her puppy, Mr. Cookiemittens, is making his 2nd Story debut in The Suitors. Peggy serves on 2nd Story's Board of Directors
