Autorenporträt

Donald l Horn aka Donnie is a playwright, author, historian, director and producer (of well over 250 theatrical productions in the past 30 years) and the founder of triangle productions!, a theatre company established in 1989 and based in Portland, Oregon. His first book, Crumbs of Love (and that's all you'll ever get), was well-received, he has finished the sequel, Pinch Me. His second book, Agapi Mou (my beloved), is a part love story, heartache and historical fiction about the Island of Zakynthos, Greece. In 2011 he wrote three books: Gracie (a biography about Gracie Hansen), Gracie Hansen's PARADISE and Lost History of Oregon: A hotel by the name of Hoyt. With How Do You Say Murder in Greek? Book 3 - The Conclusion, Don finished the trilogy dealing with a twenty-five-year-old murder on the island of Zakynthos, Greece. He has written over fifteen plays and musicals, including '69-The Sexual Revolution Musical (which won two Portland Area Music Theatre Awards for Best Songs) and the musical about Gracie Hansen, Gracie - a musical adventure (which was nominated for four PAMTA's including Best Original work). His musical Ari-Maria about Aristotle Onassis and Maria Callas premiered in Portland in 2013; and he premiered a new work about Native American jazz great Jim Pepper - The Jim Pepper Project in 2014. This has received major funding including National Endowment for the Arts to tour throughout the State of Oregon in 2015. He followed that project up with a musical based upon the legendary Portland theatre, Storefront entitled Storefront Revue: The Babes are BACK! and as well in 2018 premiered a new drama about George/Christine Jorgensen entitled TRANS-formation. His recent works are the musical Darcelle: That's No Lady and two books. He also curated the first-ever costume exhibit at the Oregon Historical Society dealing with a local designer. The show ran for 3 months - one month longer than scheduled. He is a father of two boys (Jason and Nathan), stepfather of three (Shawnee, Trisha, and Sammy), a grandfather to Zackary and William and a step-grandfather to eight more! He and his partner divide their time between homes in Portland, Oregon, Lincoln City, Oregon, Palm Springs, California, and Zakynthos, Greece. He holds a BA and MBA from City University in Seattle, Washington and is a member of the Dramatists Guild of America, Willamette Writers and Women of the West. You can contact the author at [e-mail]
