Obituary: Scott L. Denier / Locally renowned theater producer

Post Gazette: Pittsburgh stage actress Robin Walsh vividly remembers first meeting Scott L. DeNier at the local theater impresario's house in 1997. He made her get down on all fours and bark like a dog in his living room.
Ms. Walsh was auditioning for a lead in "Sylvia," a comedy about the love triangle among a man, his wife and his new dog.
Calling it a "very strange encounter," Ms. Walsh hoped that she was at a legitimate audition and not at the home of some "maniac."
It turned out to be the former. She got the role and began a collaboration with Mr. DeNier that lasted through several more stage appearances with his one-man Starlight Productions.
