Writers featured include Michael Kun, Rev. Phil Gulley, and Doug Crandell and Todd Tucker. His play, "The Pied Piper of Hoboken" was developed in part through a grant from the Indiana Arts Commission.

In 2007, he joined the staff of the Indianapolis Business Journal as Arts & Entertainment Editor. His columns, reviews and arts blog can be found here: www.ibj.com. More information at www.myspace.com/louharry.

His play Midwester Hemisphere: a suburban metaphysical comedy, co-written with Eric Pfeffinger, had its world premiere in March 2008. Staged by the Heartland Actors Repertory Theatre, a new professional company, it was the first full theater production ever staged in the Indianapolis Artsgarden, a landmark location in downtown Indy. Subsequent productions are being discussed.
