One of Joyce Sherry’s lifelong dreams is to be a contestant on Jeopardy! Although she has gone through to the final audition, she’s never been called to appear—at least, not yet. Joyce believes that she is constantly recreating herself. She started her professional life as an actor, director, and playwright, appearing in scores of productions, directing dozens of others, and collaborating with the great Ray Bradbury to adapt his novel Something Wicked This Way Comes for the stage. Her second incarnation as a York teacher and Dean of Students has been one filled with learning, challenge, and joy. Currently, her path is leading her to be certified as a personal coach, taking her love of working with adolescents to the next stage. Joyce credits mindfulness, two cats, two dogs, and her family with keeping her sane. One of Joyce Sherry’s lifelong dreams is to be a contestant on Jeopardy!
