Lisa Hamaker
Lisa Hamaker is delighted to be back at Springfield Little Theatre, returning to the organization more than two decades after first serving on staff. A graduate of Southwest Missouri State University with a BFA in Theatre & Dance, Lisa became Springfield Little Theatre’s first Development Director in 1990 and has always held a special affection for The Landers Theatre and the community surrounding it.
Her career has taken her through a wonderfully varied collection of roles, including full-time motherhood, morning radio host on KTXR 101.3, development work for The Kitchen, Inc., and, most recently, property management with Bryan Properties. Each chapter has centered in its own way on people, relationships, and community—experience she now brings back to Springfield Little Theatre as she reconnects with longtime patrons and supporters and builds relationships with a new generation of theatre lovers.
Lisa is over the moon to once again be part of the SLT family and grateful for the opportunity to support an organization that has meant so much to her throughout her life. Outside of the theatre, she is the proud mother of three grown children, Joe, Lena, and Daniel, and shares her home with Lucy the cat and Daisy the dog.
