D. Richard Tucker's plays have been produced from Seattle to South
Africa, and include a mixture of genres, from the farcical Othello
Undercover, to the gut-wrenching drama Duty, Honor, Profit, the
story of the highest ranking officer to die in the Iraq War. Tucker
also wrote the book, lyrics and co-wrote the score for THUGS:
A Musical Mafiasco, a collaboration with composer Kim Douglass.

Tucker's writing career shifted into high gear in the summer of 2002. 
After accruing extensive experience as an actor and director, Tucker
decided to dedicate his time to writing, as it was something he could
do without waiting for the rest of the cast to arrive. Tucker began
writing under the name “Dave Tucker,” but was forced to find a
new pen name upon discovery that there are more than 1400 other
Dave Tuckers out there, of which thirty-eight percent are playwrights.
