Higgins Author of Dancing Backwards, Shipwreck and Broadway Tim Higgins has lived in Winnipeg since 1952. His B.Sc. in zoology and graduate work in human genetics naturally led him to a career in acting, direction and writing for television. Tim has appeared in close to fifty productions at the Manitoba Theatre Centre, Rainbow Stage, and the Hollow Mug, and has directed half a dozen plays for companies around Winnipeg. A reviewer (now working for Variety) once favorably compared his acting style to that of Jerry Lewis. (it was a compliment!) He has two Blizzard nominations for screenwriting; one for an historical documentary, the other for drama. Both approaches stood him in good stead when he accepted the challenge of writing Shipwreck!, and later, BROADWAY. His first book, Our Church is not a Building, A History of Young United Church, was published in 1995. His second book, Dancing Backwards, co-authored with Senator Sharon Carstairs, is projected for fall 2004. |
