I appreciate receiving the following responses from some of the people with whom I had the privilege of sharing this experience:
hey neal,

thanks for letting me come along.

Neal,
You pursued MADE CROOKED with tremendous heart, and now you're
letting it go with both tremendous courage and focus on the important

Our "Acting Retreat" will remain a turning point for me in my
artistic life. Thank you for that.
Fondly, and gratefully,
