#BlackLifeMatters Wikipedia Editathon

A news clip from the New York Public Library’s February 7, 2015 Wikipedia Editathon, #BlackLifeMatters, where I am interviewed about the editing my daughter Jay and I were doing on the life and career of costume designer Judy Dearing, best known for her work on Charles Fuller’s Pulitzer Prize winning drama A Soldier’s Play, the 1976 stage adaptation of Ntozake Shange’s book, for colored girls who have considered suicide / when the rainbow is enuf and the musical Once On This Island.
