His performances have been reviewed as "a showcase of sheer star power."
A first-generation American, Liberman was mentored by Maureen Stapleton and Dame Judi Dench, and "discovered" by legendary director-producer Harold Prince as a winner of the Lotte Lenya Competition. He's a recipient of YoungArts, Helen Hayes, Ovation, and Garland Awards, and his master class series, BRIDGE TO BROADWAY, earned him an Encore Award. AMERICAN DREAM, in which he appeared with Alfred Molina debuted at Cannes (2023) and and he appears in the forthcoming film, OUR LIVES AFTER. As a writer, Liberman has contributed to New York Times, Huffington Post, and Hollywood Reporter, books Performance of the Century, Wisdom From an Empty Mind (endorsed by Eckhart Tolle and Ram Dass), and Luminous Life, and is preparing multiple projects about the American actress Jayne Mansfield.
Joan Juliet Buck, former editor-in-chief of French Vogue,
described Erik's work as
"multifaceted, irreducible, and astonishing."
