Kirt is the Executive Director of the Davis Arts Council, with a build and strengthen community by connecting people to the power of the arts. Spare time includes scaling mountains, killing wild beasts, pruning shrubbery to look like dental implements, tearing up the hills with by bad-ass roadster, and composing music (including the unfinished MADAM: The Stirring New Musical.) Kirt is "married" to Jerry Rapier and has had a Sharks-and-Jets-sized feud with Robin Wilks-Dunn.
