Anna Deavere Smith, MFA
Playwright, Actress, Professor, Tisch School of the Arts at New York University
Hailed by Newsweek as “the most exciting individual in American theater,” playwright and performance artist Anna Deavere Smith uses her singular brand of theater to explore issues of race, community and character in America. She was awarded the prestigious MacArthur Foundation “genius” Fellowship for creating “a new form of theater — a blend of theatrical art, social commentary, journalism and intimate reverie.” Smith is perhaps best known as the author and performer of two one-woman plays about racial tensions in American cities — Fires in the Mirror (Obie Award-winner and runner-up for the Pulitzer Prize) and Twilight: Los Angeles 1992 (Obie Award-winner and Tony Award nominee).
