Her one-woman play, Miriam’s Dance, in verse, about Moses’ sister, was produced in New York and Los Angeles. Her most recent play, A Radical Friendship, a two-hander about Martin Luther King Jr. and Rabbi Abraham Heschel, was last seen in Los Angeles starring Ed Asner as Rabbi Heschel.

I'm not sure if this is the edition I read, but I did read a balletgoer's guide by Jane Robbins.
