Freelance publicist for nonprofit arts groups in the Santa Barbara area, including the Santa Barbara Zoo, Lobero Theatre, Lit Moon Theatre Company, and Opera Santa Barbara. (I like to say that "I've worked for nonprofits for so long, I've become one!")
Writer for "Food & Home" Magazine and of a weekly column "South on 101" about Santa Barbara events and activities (www.santamariatimes.com/ae). Very excited about recent travel writing published in Santa Barbara News-Press and Santa Maria Times.
Adjunct faculty member Santa Barbara City College, starting Spring 2009, teaching Public Relations. (Just call me "Professor McHugh" from now on!)
Married for 25 years to wonderful, crazy Scott Orl
