Craig Choma
Craig Choma is an alum, faculty member and Technical Director in the Department of Theatre and Dance. He has taught at Knox since 1996. He is married to assistant professor of dance Jennifer Smith. They have really cute children.

He's a HUGE Phish fan. As of 2007 he is apparently an even HUGER Umphree's McGee fan. This guy digs him some jam bands.

He's also the shit, but I digress.
