The People
Julie Peterson,
publisher
858.484.3936 x1
Having tried the acting route, Julie, or
better casting and artistic directors, thought she would better serve
the world of theatre behind the scenes. Forget the triple threat, Julie
was absolutely no threat to actors gracing the stages in the Midwest.
A graduate of the University of Wisconsin-Madison, Julie earned her
degree in Journalism and Marketing and made a career out of taking up
artistic and health-related causes. As the publisher of DramaBiz,
Julie now passionately leads the cause to help keep theatres open and
prosperous.
Joel M. Dorr,
editor-in-chief
858.484.3936 x3
As an actor, director, producer and writer
in the entertainment industry, Joel has been involved in theatre since
his high school days, which he likes to relive from time-to-time. After
attending the graduate program in Theatre at the University of Arizona,
Joel immediately pursued acting and producing theatre. He took a turn
in Hollyweird and decide to return to his first love, the theatre. Now
as the editor-in-chief of DramaBiz, Joel can be frequently heard
around the office reciting lines from a play or challenging an intern
to theatre trivia while he continually takes up his fight for theatre.
Trish Aponte,
Eastern Marketing Manager
858.663.2306
Though she makes her living primarily as an actor
in New York City, Erin Cronican is drawn to the work at DramaBiz
because it closely aligns with her own personal mission- to give others
the tools they need to help grow their businesses successfully (she
is also the owner of a business coaching service for actors called The
Actors' Enterprise). Though Erin got her Bachelors Degree in Theater
from Pepperdine University and has been acting professionally for 10
years, she spent 6 years in sales/marketing at an advertising magazine
and spent 3 years as the Communications/Member Services Director of
a non-profit theatrical organization. Erin is thrilled to be able to
blend her marketing, business and theatrical skills for DramaBiz,
and is eager to build a bridge between East Coast suppliers and theaters.
Georgina
George Reid, Midwestern
Marketing Manager
858.220.0648
Based in Minneapolis, Georgina, who goes by 'George'
has been involved in the Arts since her days working in a theatre box
office in Portland! As a fine artist and graphic designer, George can
help you craft the perfect message and look to your ad! Furthermore,
she is dedicated to helping you promote your products and services to
the theatre community.
Blake Yelavich,
Western Region
858.220.8023
As a theatre owner who physically
transformed a cavernous empty cinder block shell into what one newspaper
called "A Miracle to the local Arts Scene," Blake Yelavich
understands what theatre owners and managers want from suppliers. He
can help you craft a targeted marketing message because he knows what
theatres need and want. Oh, and did we mention that he also worked a
number of years in publishing? Blake is the perfect resource to help
you build a marketing strategy that helps you get your message in front
of the right decision-makers!
