Dr. Humphrey Tonkin was born in Truro, U.K., is a dual citizen of the U.K. and the U.S., and is a dedicated Esperantist.

In 2006, he received the Cassandra Pyle Award for Leadership and Collaboration in International Education and Exchange.

Twelfth Night The bard's finest comedy is a paean to the restorative power of love. Viola lands on the shore of Illyria after losing her brother in a shipwreck, and disguises herself as a page, Cesario. Countess Olivia mourns the loss of her own brother. When the lovely Countess meets the handsome young page, desire banishes grief in this romantic comedy.
