About the Instructor

Jim Hammond recently retired from a 38 year university teaching career including three decades of service as the artistic director of the Gainesville Theatre Alliance. Jim has received numerous teaching honors including the prestigious Governor’s Award for Arts and Humanities and placement into the Georgia Theatre Hall of Fame. Jim is accepting this offer to briefly step out of retirement, drive from Atlanta and teach this class for three reasons. First, Paige, a very dear and brilliant former student asked him. Second, he misses being in a room watching dedicated students make life changing discoveries. And finally, the chance to provide students with the tools and inspiration to write and develop their own stories was Jim’s favorite class to teach. It’s time to make the strongest choice.
