About

"In The Autobiography of Alice B. Toklas, Gertrude Stein writes: 'I may say that only three times in my life have I met a genius and each time a bell within me rang and I was not mistaken.' When I first met Tara Jane O'Neil, about 25 years ago—and more particularly, the first time I saw her play—this bell rang. I was not mistaken." —Maggie Nelson
