Associate Professor of Theater Amy Steiger wrote a chapter published in a newly released book, “Stanislavsky and Race” (Routledge, 2023). Edited by Siiri Scott and Jay Paul Skelton, the book explores Stanislavsky’s approach through the lens of race, place and identity through a collection of essays from leading figures in the field. Steiger’s chapter is titled “Stanislavsky, Rose McClendon and Reparations: Whiteness, Professionalization and Reframing Amateurism in the Theater of the United States."
