Anne McNamee Keels
I'm an Oak Park mom of two sweet kids and one silly dog. My background is largely in theatre education and arts integration. Since 2007, I have had the chance to work with children of all ages from Chicago to rural Texas to Varanasi, India, first as a teaching artist and then as the education manager of a professional theatre company. Most recently, I've had the opportunity to teach theatre and storytelling classes at Actors Garden and BASE Camp here in Oak Park. While I enjoy working with students of all ages, Early Childhood has always been a special passion of mine. I love introducing our very youngest learners to how much fun school can be! When I'm not teaching, I enjoy cooking, reading, going on adventures with my family, and telling stories live on stage.
