Using "The Catastrophist" (streaming now through Trinity Rep) as a launchpad, The Aspen Institute created a free, two-part video series that explores intersections of science and storytelling to illuminate the backstories behind how expert scientists fell in love with the quest for discovery, and how writers seek to tell these stories from past and present to convey the power and purpose of the scientific endeavor.

The first event, “Going Viral: Origin Stories of Passion in the Sciences,” is a unique gathering of the country’s most interesting scientific minds in conversation about their personal origin stories.

Not surprisingly her life and career have been brought to live many times on stage and screen, including in our 1993-94 Season when Rose Weaver (pictured here) embodied the singer in "Lady Day at Emerson's Bar and Grill."
