“Wonderful to see my friend in human rights Philippe Sands at the 92nd Street Y last night. His powerful book East West Street explores the life of Raphael Lemkin -- the Polish lawyer who coined the term ‘genocide’ and whose story inspired my play Lemkin’s House.”

As the author of LEMKIN’S HOUSE, a play about the man who gave "genocide" a name -- I have dedicated much of my playwriting and libretti work to exploring these atrocities, and have long voiced my fears of genocide when it comes to the human rights violations in Gaza.

I just dropped by to thank my New York State Assemblymember Linda B. Rosenthal and her chief of staff Erica Overton. I’m so proud to be in their district, where they are fighting for the Senate Bill "packaging reduction and recycling infrastructure act".
