She has spent a life time studying all forms of movement and physical theater and became attracted to Chinese martial arts, acrobatics and Yoga in the early 1980s and parlayed that into a solo performance career that took her to Taiwan and back to her native NYC environs to perform in a wide variety of venues until 1994 when injuries forced her to retire with a disintegrated disc in her spine, torn rotator cuffs in both shoulders and arthritis that necessitated a total left hip replacement in 1998. All that time Amy never stopped her Yoga and so hated not performing, that she's using her extreme flexibility and zany imagination to relaunch her career starting in Mar. 2009!   Already The Amazing Amy has appeared at the Downtown Clown Revue, The Bindlestiff Family Circus Open Variety Show at the Galapagos Arts Space, The Lava Dance Co. Night of Renegades Variety Show, the Hi Christina Arts Space, the Ruby Streak Trapeze Studio's Velveteen Rainbow Showcase, Cirque Off! at Triskelion Arts Space, Williamsburg, Brooklyn, The House of Yes, Williamsburg, Brooklyn, and The Gong Show Live! at B. B. King's, NYC.  The Amazing Amy's Yoga Odyssey was part of the ensemble show Flight 18 running Thurs.-Sun. from Mar. 6 - April 4th at the South Street Seaport. http://www.flight18.net/    http://www.tribecatrib.com/news/2010/april/566_flight-18-lifts-off.html   Amy is also a lifelong, avid reader of SF and fantasy literature, art and graphic novels - and loves to indulge in her passion for reading and cinema (especially the silent clowns). She lives in Chelsea and welcomes intelligent feedback and discussion about the genre and the arts. Other enthusiasms: cats, Star Trek and Star Wars, archeology / anthropology / paleontology, folklore and mythology, genre films, science for intelligent laypersons, and memoirs / narratives as literature.
