Rebecca Coleman has been a freelance theatre publicist since 2001, working for companies like Touchstone, Ruby Slippers Theatre, Capilano University’s Theatre Department, Presentation House, Radix and Leaky Heaven Circus. An actor, writer and producer, she is also very passionate about helping artists to be better businesspeople. Since 2007, she has become increasingly interested in using social media networking to market the arts, and writes about the subject frequently on her blog, The Art of the Business. She has also written a e-book called Guide to  Getting Started in Social Media for Artists and Arts Organizations, which helps newbies to create a marketing plan using social networking as a tool. She also teaches workshops on the topic (frequently at the Alliance) as far away as Australia.
