Fran Walker Biography

One of the area's leading participants on the community theatre circuit, Fran has been involved with a number of stage organizations since 1971. In 1976, she was cast as Defense Attorney Stevens in the Somerset Valley Players courtroom drama, "The Night of January 16^th" performed at the Somerset County Courthouse. Twenty-one years later (1997), she found herself back in this courtroom to perform in last season's production of "The Hall-Mills Murder Trial" as - you guessed it - Ethel Stevens. Tonight, the role of Mrs. Dickson breaks her "Stevens" role streak! Fran can also be seen as Mildred Sloan in the Hunterdon Hills ("Lunch & Laughter") production of "Squabbles" at the Somerville Elks Club.
