Our Names in Lights: The Marilyn Swartz Seven '69 Playwriting Award

Marilyn Swartz Seven ’69 died in 1997. At Vassar, she was a psychology major, but her first love was always theater; during the summers she performed in stock productions or toured as a dancer with Ann Corio’s This Was Burlesque. After graduating, Seven continued to dance and act; but she also began to write plays, which soon took precedence in her creative life.
