After a lengthy and bold struggle with pancreatic cancer, James has passed away. We have lost a brilliant colleague, scholar, actor, director, student, and kind friend. He loved Shakespeare, teaching, and all of his students. And he loved the barn at Winedale. This is a very sad time. Please keep Laurel in your thoughts and prayers.
Peace and love to every one of you.
Love,
Doc
