Our latest conversation is with actor, writer and author Edward Miskie, who is based in New York City.

Edward hightailed it out of his rural Pennsylvania town almost immediately after graduating from high school not only because he wanted to pursue a career in theater, but because he was outed by a church elder when he was still a teenager. He never looked back, and has sustained a career as an actor, voice over artist and author with a book entitled "Cancer, Musical Theater and Other Chronic Illnesses". 

As you may infer from the book title, Edward is also a survivor of a rare form of lymphoma, which put his career and life on hold and also revealed some not-so-great truths about people he considered close.

Listen to more of Edward's journey in this episode. I hope you enjoy!
