Early career
Alexander’s first professional writing job was at the Berkshire Theatre Festival, where he spent two summers penning over 40 songs for its acclaimed Children’s Theatre Under The Tent. As a music producer at advertising agency Young & Rubicam in New York City, Alexander supervised the music and sound design for national broadcast campaigns for Campbell’s, Kraft, Fisher Price, Barbie and the Ad Council. He later left the corporate world to perform as a pianist and singer, playing solo and dueling piano shows in New York City and throughout the east coast for over a decade, learning thousands of songs and becoming intimately familiar with song structure.
