Meredith grew up in New Orleans, collecting two degrees from Louisiana State University before running away to Chicago to be an actor.

“to live in this world

you must be able
to do three things
to love what is mortal;
to hold it

against your bones knowing
your own life depends on it;
and, when the time comes to let it go,
to let it go”
Mary Oliver, New and Selected Poems, Volume One
