"Glover"

is a multi-disciplinary production artist, and self-confessed academic.

Originally from Scotland, Glover worked in professional theatre as a lighting and sound technician at venues including, The Strand (London’s West End), The King’s Theatre (Glasgow), The Gateway (Chester, UK), The Edinburgh Festival (Scotland), The South Eastern Theatre Conference (SETC), The Ko Festival (Amherst, MA), The Reginald F. Lewis (Baltimore, MD) and three years as a Production Manager on international cruise ships.

Glover has a undergraduate degree in Theatre, Psychology and Live Art from Chester Univesity where he was awarded the Bradbury Prize for Drama in 1997. After pursuing post-graduate degrees in both teaching and Information Technolgy he completed an MFA program in Theatre Arts at Towson University. He is a Fellow of the National Critic’s Institute at the O'Neill Theatre Centre.

Most recently Glover has been concentrating on integrating film techniques into his performance and visual art works. Exploring the objectivity of documentary film making, Glover has made several short documentaries for the WordBRIDGE Playwrights' Laboratory and three full-length video documents for Towson University. Glover is also finding new ways to integrate sculpture techniques and forms into Performance Art curating his first sculpture exhibition in Maryland in 2008.

Glover will be teaching an introduction to culture studies and theatre at Alfred university in Spring 2010 and is applying for artist's residencies that will allow him to continue his explorations with film, digital media, performance art, audio reproduction and manipulation, live performance, philosophy, writing, sculpture, religious studies, semiotics, post-structuralist theory, popular culture and audience psychology. Then again, there is the possibility that he will jack it all in, find a nice quiet cabin in the woods near a stream and forget all about that stuff.
