Biography/About

Hello! My name is Leigh Henderson. My pronouns are she/her. I've worked in the theater as a set designer, lighting designer, projections designer, production manager, company manager, stage manager, technical director, scenic artist, properties artisan, and much more for over 30 years (since I was in middle school). I've worked with theater companies of all shapes and sizes on all kinds of shows from one-person plays to large-scale musicals and from classics to new works.

My work has been seen on stages all over the Bay Area, as well as in Colorado, Wisconsin, New York, and Prague. You can see more of my work in my online portfolio at leighannhenderson.com. I'm also an artist in cake, candy, pumpkins, fabric, wood, and any other medium that catches my eye. I've been on multiple Food Network competitions! Visit my blog at doitmyself.org to see my creations.
