His last leadership role was at the Artistic Director of the Denver Center Theatre Company from 1979-1983. Ed moved from actively directing plays to teaching Shakespeare as a means to engage at risk youth. He personally funded a workshop for high school students, teaching the breadth of skills required to perform a Shakespearean role. On February 1, 2023, he died in his home reciting Shakespeare's sonnets from his bed the afternoon he passed away.
