Connected as Melissa Center (1060 friends)
Melissa currently lives in New York City where she is a hard-working actress. Melissa studied theater at Northwestern University where she graduated Summa Cum Laude. She is the founder of LBM Productions, LLC (www.lbmproductions.com) and the creator/star of original web series Missed Connections Live (www.missedconnectionslive.com). She has amassed a wide range of theatrical credits and can currently be seen playing multiple characters in a stage adaptation of Lois Lowry's The Giver, directed by Wynn Handman and produced by The American Place Theatre. www.melissacenter.com
Melissa created LBM (Love Bean Monkey) Productions LLC out of a sense of necessity: To ensure that there was an organization that could nurture and foster the independent spirit. To give voice and opportunity to up-and-coming artists. LBM seeks to produce content that challenges, provokes, enlightens, and of course entertains.
Good luck with all of it Melissa! I won't be in town for your launch party but have a blast!!

Hi Melissa - love the concept and the episodes so far!
I support projects that enrich our culture by giving back through creative commons or similar licenses.
Since your work derives from the words of craigslist posters, will you be willing to give others a crack at making derivative works from your stuff? You could use a license that encourages others to reuse and remix your work to make even more cool stuff.
Whaddya say?
This looks great Melissa! Best of luck!
Yay! I get to be the first backer! Good luck! xoxo
