Ronald GarbinRonald Garbin grew up in Detroit, with an early flair for drawing and coloring. At Wayne State University he studied mathematics and physics and eventually took a Ph.D in the latter, but had begun to write plays for fun. The first, The Wooden Horse, on a prize from the Greater Detroit Motion Picture Council, the second, Great Tweed, got accepted for publication by First Stage, which, alas, expired first. After teaching at University of Windsor, he served 3 years in 1970's England as Program Secretary of the Players/Playwrights Society, where several of his scripts had staged readings. Back in the U.S., he worked as computer specialist at the Treasury Department's Applied Math Lab, then moved to the Agriculture Department, and continued playwriting. Several summers ago the Pend Oreille Players staged his one-act play The Reservation. He belongs to the Dramatist Guild and the American Physical Society. This play John Hyde presents diverse interests in their ongoing comic conflict. Read More Read Less
