Denise J. Hart Actor Reel from HBO's, The Wire
Hi there! I'm Denise J. Hart, a multi-hyphenate scholar and creative from the midwest.
As a 26 year professor at Howard University I've helped shape the lives of hundreds of young people through my role as area coordinator for writing for stage and screen with a focus on playwriting and TV Scriptwriting, in the Department of Theatre Arts.
While you're here, please check out my work: research, playwriting, TV Scriptwriting/Play Development and Production dramaturgy and directing. Plus, Student Success is a snapshot of how my former students are making an impact in the world!
For fun I love family history and genealogy. Check out my 30 second ancestory.com commercials - One which focuses on Howard University and Two which focus on my family's role in post Black Reconstruction!
Scroll down to learn more about my recent projects and where I'll show up next in the world!
