Help Kenneth Hogan Transition to a Bright Future in the Arts

NOTE: Please see UPDATES below on Kenneth's progress upon his release.

Hi, my name is Tahia Hogan, and I’m reaching out to ask for your support on behalf of my husband, Kenneth Hogan. Kenneth has spent 24 1/2 years incarcerated and is set to be released in March 2025. As he prepares to re-enter society, we are seeking your help to cover his initial expenses and assist him in building a future that reflects his passion, dedication, and talent.

During his time in prison, Kenneth has earned an Associate’s degree in Liberal Arts and a Bachelor’s degree in Social Studies from Bard College, and he is currently enrolled in their Master’s degree program in Public Humanities.

Kenneth has committed himself to his true passion—acting, writing, and directing. With over a decade of experience in theater, Kenneth has honed his craft by performing with the Rehabilitation Through the Arts theater group and Bard College's acting ensemble. He’s an actor, playwright, and theater director with a clear goal of telling meaningful stories through artistic expression.

One of Kenneth’s proudest accomplishments is the creation of his original play, Broke City, a work that reflects his unique creative vision and ambition. This project has the potential to make a significant impact in the theater world, and he’s determined to see it brought to life.

Kenneth’s dedication to his craft and education has been unwavering, and he is now focused on taking his skills into the theater and film industries. He is ready to contribute to the world by telling compelling, thought-provoking stories.
