He returned to Brown to study Theatre, Speech and Dance with George Houston Bass, John Emigh and Paula Vogel. His academic focus was American Minstrelsy and he directed the first college production of George C. Wolfe’s The Colored Museum which won him best director in the American College Theatre Festival and performances at the Kennedy Center in Washington, D.C.

Wolfe.
Berry began his teaching career at Williams College in 1992. He has since taught at Smith College, University of California, San Diego and received tenure at California State University San Marcos. Throughout his time as a professor, he directed over 50 plays and has trained such artists as Michael Bakkensen, Quincy Tyler Bernstine, Marsha Stephanie Blake, Melody Butiu, Chris Butler, Ricardo Chavira, Maria Dizzia, Mary Catherine Garrison, Brian Sgambati and Jonathan Silverstein.

Brasch Page 314 )〕 at Rites & Reason Theatre.〔(Rites and Reason Theatre )〕 The play was also produced at The National Black Theater Festival (NC).〔(1993 BRER RABBIT by Loni Berry )〕 As a professional director, he has served as Artist in Residence at Seattle Repertory Theatre,〔( Seattle Repertory Theatre Production History )〕 and his work has been produced at The Public Theatre (NY), The Hartford Stage Company, California Center for the Arts-Escondido, and Great Lakes Theater Festival (Cleveland).
