About Me
Andrew Woodrow Butcher has lived in nine different apartments since he moved to Toronto. He grew up in Hamilton, where he spent a lot of time singing, playing the piano and the trombone, and enjoying school. He studied French Lit and Literary Studies at U of T, where he met a bunch of amazing people. Later, he took a job selling books, which is what he's done for a living ever since. In the last decade he has co-founded a theatre company, written many a poem, gone to the opera and the symphony religiously, worked as a dramaturge, scripted a fashion show, and become an uncle. Four years ago he fell in love, and in 2006 he married the most amazing man. His current projects include writing more, and more often, and eating five to twelve servings of fruit and veg a day.
