Jeffrey Petersen fancies himself a maker.  Creative contemplation is his raison d'être. He firmly believes in the transformative power of live theater and in its potential to heal, to educate, to contextualize, to empower, to dislodge, to humble, to ignite, to quicken, to delight, and also to entertain. His introduction to the possibilities of collaborative art thru theater came first at Minnesota's Perpich Center for Art's Education in Minneapolis.  In 2003 Jeffrey earned a Bachelors of Fine Art with concentrations in Scenic Design and Performance from The University of Minnesota -Duluth. Jeffrey holds a Master of Fine Arts degree from Boston University where he was honored to study under James Noone. He's lived many lives, and worn many hats over the years. He is currently Technical Director and Production Manager for the award-winning Boston Playwrights’ Theatre at Boston University.   He likes to ask questions and to seek answers and he readily admits that our world is colored in varying shades of gray.   

Jeffrey is a proud member of the United Scenic Artists local USA 829.
