David MacMurray Smith

David MacMurray Smith is an independent educator with 44 years of professional experience performing, creating, directing and teaching in the areas of Theatre, Ballet, Opera, Mime, and Clown. He is a movement specialist and experienced counselor whose special interest is in exploring how memory moves and patterns itself through our bodies and how this affects our perceptions, behavior, and communication. He was drawn by his interest and experience to develop his own body-centered, humanist approach to personal and professional development through creative studies in the psychology of human performance. The convention of Clown has become a central focus for that activity and he has been sharing the delightful ways that it helps develop self-awareness, personal freedom and communication through creation and play since 1982.
