On Broadway, he directed Hello, Dolly! starring Carol Channing (Tony nomination for Best Revival) and An Evening with Jerry Herman. He has also directed Anything Goes starring Chita Rivera, productions of Hello, Dolly! starring Madeline Kahn, JoAnne Worley, Michele Lee, Leslie Uggams and (in Paris) Nicole Crosile, Singin’ in the Rain, and numerous productions of 42nd Street. Favorite TV appearances include “Jerry Herman at the Hollywood Bowl” (PBS and Bravo), “Show Boat” (PBS), “In Performance at the White House” (PBS), three Tony Awards shows and “Night of 100 Stars II.” His concert and cabaret (Bistro Award) appearances have taken him around the world.
