Susan Krebs ~ Jazz Gardener

An avid gardener and bird lover, Krebs says her work is “about the art of becoming” – whether working with plants or music or with oneself – to dig down, to cultivate, to encourage growth, to thrive and flourish, and eventually to let go and begin the cycle anew.”

 A native of Baltimore, Susan grew up in a home filled with the sounds of Bach, Beethoven, Gilbert & Sullivan, Broadway, Billie, Ella and the Blues of Bessie. She studied acting in New York City with Uta Hagen, appearing in Off-Broadway plays and musicals and TV commercials, as well as performing with the improvisational theater company, War Babies.
