Meet Founder and Owner of The Oh My Gosh! co. A. M. Pohl *In the beginning*
Born in Germany in 1965, it was obvious that nothing about Anna was going to be mundane. Being raised in Northeast Ohio, she was drawn to the magic of live performance at an early age and has been an entertainer since she was five years old. (Gene Kelly was her favorite) She studied with the prestigious Studio Theater and went on to study with many other reputable schools and private instructors. There were other entertainers and artists in Anna's family. Her Mother played piano giving her a Love of music and her father was a hilarious storyteller influencing her throughout her life and career. But it was her Grandmother who was her biggest influence. Having been on the Ballroom circuit in the Big Band era, "Grama Flo" was a huge driving force in Anna's beginning to entertain and continuing throughout her childhood, into her adulthood and beyond. As you can see, she hasn't lost her Love of it all or her sense of humor. Read on to find out what happened next.

What she said...
"A performance must be *hands on* and interactive. We must make sure that individuals are involved so they have something they can take home with them and use in their everyday lives. It is important to remember that in sharing the arts we are the motivators, the influencers and example for others. We can make the learning experience memorable and positive and great fun for each person. We can reach them even on a subconscious level. Life was made to be joyous! Try to share your joy with everyone you come into contact with. Thanks for supporting all of the arts." AMP
