She's just one of those people whose work I like to look out for, so I'm starting a thread for her. Her early works, especially Twilight: Los Angeles, 1992, made a tremendous impact on me when I was in college; she and Tony Kushner are the only two people I've ever asked for autographs, stammering appreciation as I did so, on separate occasions during the last couple years of my lamentable career as an NYU student.

The link above is supposedly a free share).
