Woman Behind the Blog

Having been a fan of Wasserstein for quite some time, I needed little reinforcement of my admiration for her. However, I came across this quote written about her shortly after her death. She was and remains a true role model for all women.

"She was known for being a popular, funny playwright, but she was also a woman and a writer of deep conviction and political activism," Mr. Bishop said. "In Wendy's plays women saw themselves portrayed in a way they hadn't been onstage before — wittily, intelligently and seriously at the same time... She was a real pioneer."
