Howard Lieberman, poet, storyteller, and performance artist, has done everything on stage except sing. He has been regarded as the finest Jewish traditional Irish Ceili dancer in Manhattan. His tap dancer father and math teacher mother partially explains his wild mood swings. Howard now lives in bucolic, Republican, Stillwater, Minnesota with a New York accent and a jaded sense of humor. More about Howard
