In 2013 he designed and built a 15-foot tall puppet of Toussaint L’Ouverture for the URT production of Roots of Liberty, starring Danny Glover as Toussaint. The village of miniature houses for the set of A Christmas Carol is the product of a lifelong fascination with the department store holiday window displays, model train sets, dioramas, and other miniature glowing worlds.
