G. B. Shand, Senior Scholar at York University's Glendon College, writes on teaching early modern drama, and on text and performance. He edited both prose and poetry for Oxford's Complete Middleton. As text coach, he has assisted on professional productions in Canada and at Shakespeare's Globe Theatre. His mentors in graduate school were the quietly gifted Guy Hamel, and the formidable yet unfailingly generous Clifford Leech.
