Joy Carlin, noted actor and director, in conversation with host Richard Wolinsky.

A former core member of ACT's acting company and interim Artistic Director at Berkeley Rep, Joy Carlin has a noted career as both actor and director. She currently directs George Bernard Shaw's first produced play, "Widowers' Houses" at Aurora Theatre Company in Berkeley.

The play, which focuses on housing, slum lords, urban development and the gap between rich and poor, was written in 1895 and produced three years later, and began a long and lengthy career for Shaw, recognized today as one of the greatest playwrights in the English language.

Joy Carlin has directed several plays for Aurora and A.C.T. and has acted in television and film along with theater, including a recent role in "Blue Jasmine." Later this spring she will star in the play "Marjorie Prime" at Marin Theatre Company.
