Caroline Shaffer

Caroline Shaffer* is thrilled to be participating in another season of the discovery and nurturing of new plays with ANPF. A passionate lover of all theatre and an armchair dramaturg, she has been involved with ANPF almost since its inception, directing or acting regularly since 1991. Caroline was a member of OSF’s acting company for 12 seasons and has also directed locally for Oregon Stage Works, Actor’s Theatre, and Southern Oregon University. She has acted in regional theatres across the country as well as Off-Broadway and at Brooklyn Academy of Music. She has the requisite commercial, film, TV, and voiceover credits, but the accomplishment she is most proud of is her job as mom to the enchanting, engaging, challenging, and endlessly understanding Ethan, Emily, Corin, and Finnegan. Without them theatre would have no meaning.
