This week, we sat down with Lee Nishri-Howitt to talk about the return to in-person classes in higher education, and what it means for students and faculty alike. Lee is an Assistant Professor of voice, speech, and accents at the Boston Conservatory at Berklee, as well as a public speaking instructor at Harvard University. He also teaches voice and accents at Emerson College and Boston University. Lee has served as a voice, accent, and text coach all over Boston, in theaters such as The American Repertory Theater, Huntington Stage Company, New Repertory Theater, SpeakEasy Stage Company, and others. Originally from Israel, Lee is a graduate of the masters program in vocal pedagogy at the American Repertory Theater Institute at Harvard, and is also a certified teacher of Knight-Thompson Speechwork.
