Dianne has made a lifelong study of Florida’s history. As a historical dramatist, she has researched, written, and performed one-woman original dramas for twenty-plus years throughout Florida and the East Coast. Using women from Florida’s past as inspiration, she presents characters as diverse as pirates, crackers, and Victorian millionaires. Dianne performs for historical societies, libraries, museums, government events, private parties, cruise ships, and a variety of venues. History and drama are her passions. Her goal is to educate through entertaining. Each show is historically accurate, very entertaining, and elaborately costumed.
