Silent Sky
Lauren Gunderson is an American playwright, screenwriter, and short story writer. In 2019-20, she was recognized as America’s most produced living playwrights. Born in Atlanta, she received a Bachelor of Arts in Creative Writing from Emory University and then a Master of Fine Arts in Dramatic Writing from New York University's Tisch School of the Arts. In the course of her career, she has had over 20 plays produced, including I and You, which won the 2014 Harold and Mimi Steinberg/American Theatre Critics Association New Play Award. Her first play Parts They Call Deep won the 2002 Young Playwrights National Playwriting Competition and was produced Off-Broadway at the Cherry Lane Theatre.
A decade before women gained the right to vote, Henrietta Leavitt and her fellow women “computers” transformed the science of astronomy. In the Harvard Observatory, Leavitt found 2,400 new variable stars and made important discoveries about their fluctuating brightness, enabling fellow scientists to map the Milky Way and beyond. This inspiring drama explores the determination, passion and sacrifice of the women who redefined our understanding of the cosmos.
