About Us

KIMBERLEY COOPER KISSOYAN (EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR)

Kimberley Cooper grew up in San Francisco where she made her stage debut at the age of four as a poppy in The Wizard of Oz to rave reviews in the Kindergarten Press.  Just a bit later, she graduated from Princeton University with a B.A. in Comparative Literature.  While at Princeton, she performed with the Princeton Triangle Club and the Princeton University Players on the McCarter stage and at the Broadmead Theater as well as in various blackbox theatres and on tour.  She also sang a capella with the Princeton Katzenjammers.  Kimberley moved to DC over seven years ago, and has studied at the Studio Theatre Acting Conservatory and with the Theatre Lab.  In DC, she has performed with Studio Theatre Secondstage, Source Theatre, Rorschach Theatre, Cherry Red Productions, Project Y, Glamonstrosity, Inc. and at the Source Theatre Festival, and worked on several independent films.  By day, Kimberley is a paralegal at the law firm of Andalman & Flynn. Her biggest accomplishment was to convince Vaskin Kissoyan to marry her, despite her schedule.
