Zan and Dan Raynor have been with Stevens Puppets since 1993. They both came to Stevens Puppets with
extensive theatre backgrounds both onstage and off. Their love of theatre began when they were in high school.
Zan in Elkhart, IN and Dan in San Jose, CA. They both have acted and directed professionally all over the
Country. Unbeknownst to them, they were developing creative and unique skills that would eventually
come full circle and help them while creating and performing marionette theatre. Zan does all the new carving
for Stevens Puppets, and restores the "Original Stevens marionettes", and Dan
does the performing. Some of the marionettes date back to 1949.

After Zan finished her Masters degree from the University of Notre Dame ,
Dan and Zan moved to Fairfax, VA.
Zan is continuing to pursue her Doctorate, and is currently ABD (All But Disertation) at
the Catholic University of America in Washington DC.
Beginning in the summer of 2008, Zan will be working on another
masters degree from Marymount University

Summer 2007 - Summer 2008, Zan was the charter Principal of Holy Family

The family and Stevens Puppets relocated to Birmingham, AL, for a year.
Zan was hired to be the Principal of Saint Vincent dePaul Catholc School in Rogers, AR, summer 2008. So
we moved away from Birmingham (happily) and have moved the headquarters of Stevens Puppets to Rogers, AR.
