Conners Award from the Paris Review , and the Pennsylvania Governor's Award for Excellence in the Arts.

" Robert Cordier is a DNA astronaut traveling through theatre space in the images he creates with his art. His American production of my play Billy the Kid or The Blossom (which influenced The Doors & Jim Morrison) was one of the revelatory, extravagant, joyous and terrifying experiences that drama has brought me." —Michael McClure
