Last week I convened artists and activists for a reading of my new play OLIVIA, a story that examines the climate crisis through a mother-daughter lens, followed by a powerful conversation on climate accountability.

This week, I was thrilled to join @beyondplastics.bsky.social for a day of action in Albany in support of the Packaging Reduction and Recycling Infrastructure Act (PRRIA), a bill that would finally put #peopleoverplastic
