Farmer-Playwright
"T.-CAN milk a cow, and believe me, that’s a much more important achievement than writing a play. Seriously though, I do regard my farmhouse home as a big thing in my life, even if it’s only ten acres with a few cows; pigs, chickens, and geese. That sort of life l:ceps your feet on the ground and helps you to hang on to a sense of proportion." -- Esther McCracken, the well-known playwright, being interviewed by the BBC.
