TV credits include: Ryan's Hope; All My Children; and A Christmas Carol on PBS. Ms. Irey has also worked as a director, writer, producer, and teacher, frequently collaborating with her husband, Stefano LoVerso.

They founded the professional theatre company Helper Intermountain Theatre, of which they were co-artistic directors for four years. During that time, faced with the necessity of producing a small-cast holiday show, they wrote A
Christmas Carol...more or less.
