Gambit, Herod in Jesus Christ Superstar, Doolittle in My Fair Lady, Melvin P. Thorpe in
The Best Little Whorehouse In Texas, Lazar Wolf in Fiddler, Max Prince in Laughter on

of Wit in which he won the Critics Circle Award for Best Director. He was recently awarded
the Outstanding Faculty Award by the Community Colleges of Spokane and in 2006 received the
Arts in Education award from the city of Spokane. When scholarship funding dried up several
years ago for drama students, he started the fundraising for the first endowed scholarship
account through the CCS Foundation which now has over $25,000 and last year $2,000 in scholarships
were awarded to deserving students.
Bill most enjoys the opportunity that the Falls affords him as a creative artist and as a
mentor to students. In the summer he enjoys gardening, playing Dungeons and Dragons and camping
trips with Sara, his wife of 27 years, and his two dogs Bilbo and Baggins.
