On today's episode, I talk to theater and TV director Sheldon
Epps. Originally from Compton, CA, Sheldon's decades-long career in
entertainment has spanned both the stage and television. He was a
co-founder & the associate artistic director of the off-Broadway
theater The Production Company, conceived and directed the Duke
Ellington musical Play On!, which received three Tony Award
nominations, and was the artistic director at the Pasadena
Playhouse for two decades. For television, Sheldon has directed
episodes of Frasier, Everybody Loves Raymond, Friends, Hannah
Montana, Sister, Sister, and many, many more, and he was a
producer/director for the hit UPN/CW show Girlfriends. Most
recently, just this fall, Sheldon's memoir My Own Directions:
A Black Man's Journey in the American Theatre was published - check
it out!
