Karen Jones-Peterson

Cutter/Draper

First season at OSF: 1978

I cut my first show here in 1978. After taking a break to raise our three children, I came back in 2007. In 2014, my 22nd season, I am working on The Comedy of Errors, A Wrinkle in Time, The Two Gentlemen of Verona and Family Album.

My responsibility is to make the designer's ideas into reality. I make patterns, conduct fittings on the actors and oversee construction and completion of the costumes.

I graduated from a fashion design school and earned a BA in technical theatre from U.C. Santa Barbara.

My husband Bob and I enjoy gold panning and rock collecting in our spare time.
