Kathleen O'Shea David started working with puppets when she was 2 and over 40 years later she is still "wiggling dolls" for fun and profit. Along the way she picked up a few more skills and careers. She has done just about everything from cancer research to rock and roll. Some of her favorite jobs have been in puppetry, theater, and publishing. With her husband Peter David, she adapted the first four issues of the Japanese Manga Negima. She is a published writer with a Doctor Who story in the Big Finish anthology Short Trips: Qualities of Leadership among others. She worked on Star Wars: The New Jedi Order with Shelly Shapiro. Her costumes have won awards at various science fiction conventions both for performance and workmanship. Her puppets are in collections all over the world. Currently she is working on a couple of projects with her husband along with a number of other puppetry groups in New York.
