Executive Board
The Executive Board is elected by the membership of Mask & Mirror each spring, and consists of six officers and three members at large. These people oversee a slate of committees organized to conduct the activities of the organization.
Information about the Executive Board members:
President Rick Hoover is originally from Tustin, California. Rick majored in theatre in high school and college, and started his career as a dancer in the Christmas parades at Disneyland. He worked as an extra in Hollywood on Guilty or Innocent, The Sam Shepard Murder Case, All In The Family, and General Hospital. Over his career, Rick has been involved in over 50 productions as either an actor, director or technical.
Rick first got involved with Mask & Mirror when he saw a call for one of our public play readings. This led to auditioning (not cast) and then directing his first show with M&M. He has since directed two other shows for M&M and also directed (and edited) two of our recent radio shows: War of the Worlds and Help Desk, and edited A Christmas Carol, Motherhood Out Loud and Crossing the Barre - entertainment that Mask & Mirror has provided during the pandemic. Rick is also a member of the Executive Board and is the Technical Director as well as a former Back Lot manager, occasional producer, frequent stage
builder and always there at strike. 6/22/2024, 2 year term
Immediate Past President John Knowles I have been on the Executive Board of Mask and Mirror for a year and have enjoyed serving. I have been in three M&M productions as an actor, built the set for another, and otherwise volunteered my services when needed. I am also a lawyer, arbitrator and mediator, as well as a part time Circuit Court Judge, and will bring the skills I have learned in those professions to the role of President. 6/10/2022
