Marriage At Work

Paul Franklin Stregevsky (story, book, lyrics, music) holds a B.A. in English Language and Literature from the University of Chicago and completed the coursework for an M.S. in Technical Communication from Southern Polytechnic State University in Marietta, Georgia. At Chicago, he penned and performed song parodies satirizing college life. He later focused his lyric-writing talents on Orthodox Jewish life, performing at synagogues and singles groups in Atlanta, Washington, and Baltimore. From 1987 through 1991 he wrote and performed original songs and parodies for Jewish weddings. He is a native of Cincinnati, where his mother (Ruth Stregevsky) has written the book and lyrics for more than ten Jewish Center musicals. He lives with his wife Elina in Poolesville, Maryland; their daughters attend college and medical school. His son, Nachum, lives in Jerusalem; his stepdaughter Chana, in Houston. By 2012, Stregevsky hopes to complete his second musical, Tracks.
