Barbara and Austin have been making music and art together for some time now. They met when Bleier was a student in Pendleton's acting class. Over the years they have gone from being teacher and student to being colleagues, creating several shows along the way. Both are respected multi-hyphenates. Bleier is an actor, singer, writer, and a Doctor of Clinical Psychology.
Pendleton, of course, created the role of the Tailor, Motel Kamzoil in the original Jerome Robbins production of Fiddler on the Roof.
Since then he has become one of America's most respected character actors with hundreds of theatre and film credits as well as a highly in-demand director and teacher. He currently teaches the class once presided over by Uta Hagen at HB Studio.
