The actor and playwright Anna Deavere Smith reads from her play “This Ghost of Slavery,” which was published in the Atlantic’s special December issue on Reconstruction.

For this original work, Smith blended her contemporary interviews with historical accounts of Maryland in the mid-1860s, tracing the ramifications of slavery through the current criminal-justice system and revealing the power of historical trauma to shape behavior in the present day.

In her play “This Ghost of Slavery,” published in The Atlantic’s December issue, the playwright and actress Anna Deavere Smith used contemporary interviews supplemented with primary-source historical materials to inform characters’ dialogue. Smith spoke with people absorbed into the criminal-justice system, activists, and social-justice workers, many of them associated with the nonprofit organization Chicago CRED, which seeks to help young people ensnared in gangs or the juvenile-justice system. She blended these interviews with 19th-century archives, transcripts, diaries, and historical accounts of Maryland. “I’ve been trying to become America word-for-word for almost four decades,” Smith says.

I recently had the honor of working with Getty and Tess Taylor on a new podcast called Recording Artists: Intimate Addresses, a show exploring the lives of artists through the letters they wrote.

What an exciting experience to voice artistic luminaries such as Frida Kahlo, Marcel Duchamp, and Meret Oppenheim. Much like the work I have done in the theater for over four decades now, I walked in these artists' words by reading letters that each of them wrote — verbatim.

It was a privilege becoming these inspiring individuals, however briefly. And I hope you can take some time to listen to this podcast and discover a new — and intimate — side to these public figures.

Recording Artists is available everywhere you find podcasts.
With wonderful Sarah Manyika. Yesterday she spoke at Schomberg Festival about her book “Between Starshine and Clay”
I interviewed Julian Manyika when he was 11. He told me he was a “consequentialist”. He just graduated from MIT.
I was thrilled to get a chance to broadcast the work of Michela Marino Lerman when the NYT asked me to participate in their Legends & Heirs feature for the T Magazine Culture issue. Gift link to the article in my bio!
