On September 11th, 2010 I interviewed Linda Smith Palmer, the producer of the Seacoast Fringe Festival as well as Valerie Marcley her co-producer extraordinaire.

She also created the St. John Comedy Tour Bus, performed as a one-woman traveling show. Her productions feature inventive puppets and costuming. Palmer’s latest puppet is the machine gun carrying Fluffy, the Attack Poodle. For twenty years Palmer drew a daily political cartoon strip for the Virgin Island Daily News.
