HONOR MOLLOY has received fellowships from the National Endowment for the Arts, the Radvliffe Institute for Advanced Study at harvard, and a Pew Fellowship in the Arts. Her autobiographical novel Smarty Girl - Dublin Savage was recently published by GemmaMedia (paperback original) and Simon & Schuster Audio. Born in Dublin, Honor Molloy lives in Brooklyn.

SCARLETT MONTGOMERY has worked as an actor and writer in film, television, and especially in a number of downtown theaters from the mid-80s to the mid-90s. Her writing for the theater culminated in a year-long stint at the Public Theater, performing her and others original works, and then making the award-winning short film, Life of a Plate. Since the late 90s, Sue has sung rock and soul blues music in about five bands, and yet her current band, Chuck and Sue, with husband Chuck on monster guitar has outlasted all of them combined, playing original tunes in NYC clubs regularly (find us, Like us on Facebook). Additionally, Scarlett has two musicals in various stages of production.
