My favorite teacher was … "my drama teacher Mr. Hurley in high school. He really introduced me to the theatre and encouraged me to try out for all the plays and musicals. It was because of his teaching and mentoring that I had the courage to perform at Bucks County Playhouse in [Pennsylvania]."

My favorite teacher was … “Mrs. Gambogi, Fourth Grade. Without knowing it, while posted on her stool at the front of the class, reading Charlotte's Web, she introduced me to the lovely charms of a woman's calf. She probably ignored the fact that I was staring.”
9. Ed Edmunds, Making Monsters

My favorite teacher was … “Don McFarland, he let me sculpt masks in a drawing class for college credit. Years later I hired him to draw some stuff for Distortions. The teacher that would have been my favorite was my dentist’s brother who was head of the art department at UCSC; he saw some of my masks in high school and offered me a scholarship on the spot to sculpt masks ... I turned him down, thinking ‘I can't make money doing that.'”
10. Mark Meyer, Baggage Battles

Vickers & Beechler
My favorite field trip was … “[My] middle school trip to Frost Valley -- too many kids and too few chaperones."
