Noted actress, playwright and author Anna Deavere Smith will join us this year as our featured presenter. Ms. Smith will be performing selections from her one-woman play Let Me Down Easy, which garnered rave reviews during its off-Broadway run and which Austinites remember from its preview at the Zach Scott Theater. During the play Ms. Smith presents a series of monologues in which she portrays individuals she interviewed about their experiences within the U.S. healthcare system. "I like to say it's about the power of the body, the cost of care and the resilience of the spirit," Smith says.
Ms. Smith is also a professor of performance studies at New York University and has appeared in the TV series Nurse Jackie and The West Wing. More information about Ms. Smith and the play is available in the New York Times and on NPR as well as on Ms. Smith's website.
