An actress, writer and playwright from Baltimore. She has been doing a project since the late 1970s called "On the Road a Search for American Character". This has involved recording conversations with over 2,000 people which she then re-enacts generally without props or costumes. The aim was to "absorb America". She is able to embody the character regardless of their age, race, gender etc.
I like the idea of using scripts from conversations or interviews and reconsidering them out of their original context. Might experiment with film or sound of Katie and I- identity, compare/contrast, mirror, repeating, expectations etc...
