Things I Don't Know About Animals: Rod Martin Artist Publishing LLC

Rod Martin is a published author, poet, songwriter and playwright living in Hawaii. For thirty years, he taught Poetry, Drama, English and Television Production freelance and for Hawaii public schools. Recently retired, he has turned his focus to writing books to help teachers: "Drama Games and Acting Exercises" teaches how to incorporate improvisational theatre into the curriculum and "Future Poets" is a guide to writing new kinds of poetry. "Jesse, Son of God" is his first novel based on the premise; "What if God had a second Son but didn't tell him who He was? The Devil bet God that He couldn't find His way to Heaven with a map." Rod is also active in the local theatre scene, having written and produced several movie musicals: the children's sci-fi melodrama musical "Star Pieces", the gospel musical "One More Time!" and the (who-dunnit?) musical "Love Hurts, But Murder Kills." He is the founder of the Honolulu Improvisational Theatre Company (HITco) and continues to love improvisational acting. As a songwriter, Rod has had his music featured on Saturday Night Live and has numerous albums available from I-tunes and CD Baby (search: Rod Martin and Friends) and on Spotify (search Rod Martin Artist).
