Playwright Alana Valentine discusses the alchemy of turning letters and ledgers into the flesh and bones of drama, transporting our history into the artistry of universal emotional resonance.

Valentine was the Library’s Harold White Fellow in 2013 and devoted her time to researching the papers of Lindy Chamberlain-Creighton for her play, Letters to Lindy.
