Matthew Foster sometimes creates theater but mostly is a graphic designer and web developer for nonprofit organizations, a lot of them artsy. He was communications director at Minnesota Fringe once. He went back to school recently to study the cultural dimension of republican citizenship and the history of how American performing arts contributed to political and social movements. He sings national anthems when he’s had too much to drink but doesn’t feel weird about it since most of them started out as drinking songs, anyhow.
