RUNNING HEAD: DETERMINING A CORRELATION BETWEEN CHILDHOOD TRAUMA & VIOLENT ACTS 2 Identifying Patterns Between the Sexual Serial Killer & Pedophile: Is There a Correlation Between their Violent Acts and Childhood Trauma? ______________________________________________________________________________ A Thesis Presented to The Faculty of the College of Arts and Sciences Florida Gulf Coast University In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirement for the Degree of Master of Science _____________________________________________________________________________ By Alexis Droomer 2020 RUNNING HEAD: DETERMINING A CORRELATION BETWEEN CHILDHOOD TRAUMA & VIOLENT ACTS 3 Abstract Studies have been conducted to determine if a sexual serial killer and pedophile are similar and/or different to one another. Despite the difference in their criminal acts, sexual serial killers and pedophiles have similar characteristics. Biological, environmental and psychological theories of criminal behavior were studied which illustrated their significance to how a person can choose to commit a crime. The purpose of this study is to determine if there is a presence or absence within multiple forms of childhood trauma experienced between the sexual serial killer and pedophile.

  • Past TRC Productions
    TRINITY REPERTORY COMPANY 201 Washington Street, Providence, RI 02903 PAST PRODUCTIONS Counting seasons: In the official count of seasons (1st, 2nd, 3rd, etc.), it may have been decided in 1970 to not count 1963-64 as the first season. Or a mistake in a brochure may have never been caught until it was much too late. Subscription brochures for the 1969-70 Season and 1970-71 Season both refer to the upcoming season as the 7th Season. Brochures for the 1967-68 and 1968-69 Seasons refer to them respectively as the 5th and 6th Seasons, but a brochure for the 1965-66 Season refers to that as the “second full season.” During the 1963-64 Season, Trinity Players on the Square was not a fully professional company and there were no actual performances in 1963. 1964-65 was the first full season with Adrian Hall as artistic director and Equity contracts. The counting of the seasons proceeded consecutively from the second 7th Season. *World Premiere Production **American Premiere Production ***Pre-Season Productions + Booked-In, Rental, Competition Winner, Special Presentation, or Co-Production 1963-1964 Season • 1st Director Playwright Designers The Hostage Ira Zuckerman Brendan Behan Sets: Sandra Tilles Costumes: Joyce Anderson Lighting: Thomas J.

  • Wolfe, George C. (B
    Wolfe, George C. (b. 1954) by Linda Rapp Encyclopedia Copyright © 2015, glbtq, Inc. Entry Copyright © 2002, glbtq, Inc. Reprinted from http://www.glbtq.com Director, writer, and producer George C. Wolfe has had a distinguished career in the theater. Among the numerous awards and prizes that he has garnered are two Tony Awards. In addition to directing such important works as Tony Kushner's Angels in America, Wolfe has also written a number of plays and musicals, several of which have had successful runs on Broadway. Since 1993, he has been the producer and artistic director of the New York Shakespeare Festival and the Joseph Papp Public Theater, positions that give him one of the most influential voices in American theater. Origins in Kentucky Wolfe was born on September 23, 1954 in Frankfort, Kentucky, a segregated city at the time. He recalls the "very tight black community" in which he grew up as nurturing. As a child, he says, he "was told that [he] was magical . special and extraordinary," and he "grew up with no concept of racial inferiority." He did, however, encounter racism. He experienced what he called a "defining event" when, at age seven, he could not get into Frankfort's Capitol Theater to see the animated Disney film 101 Dalmations because he was black. He used his altogether justified outrage in a positive manner. He determined to strive for excellence in everything he did so that he could get "into any place [he] wanted to get into." He adds that "it was also a given that once I got into the room, I was supposed to open the windows and doors and let in other people." As a young child Wolfe attended the private all-black school where his mother taught and later was principal.
