11 A cknowledgments Writing Performances: The Stages of Dorothy L. Sayers was made possible by the institutional support of Messiah College, which provided me with an early sabbatical to write the first draft, a Scholar Chair to finish the project, and a grant to visit Sayers sites in England. The college also funded three student interns to help with final preparations of the manuscript; Rachel Petersen and twins Rebecca and Ruth Brown were invaluable, their careful attention to detail making this a better book. Finally, the Messiah College English Department allowed me to take advantage of the intelligence and good nature of work study student Janel Atlas, who provided both editorial and moral support. Also crucial to my writing performance has been the Marion E. Wade Center of Wheaton College, which awarded me the Clyde S. Kilby Research Grant for The staff at the Wade have been gracious and supportive, not only allowing me to quote unpublished Sayers documents I discovered in their reading room, but also making available the photographs of Sayers that grace this book. There are many specific individuals who have helped shape the thought that has gone into Writing Performances, but two in particular deserve special attention. First is Barbara Luton, who gave me Whose Body?, my first Lord Peter Wimsey novel, and then insisted that I get my own body into graduate school. Next is my most astute reader and best friend, David C. Downing, whose trips to the Wade Center for research on C. S. Lewis provided me with the motivation to study C. S. Lewis s friend. Janice Brown, author of The Seven Deadly Sins in the Work of Dorothy L. Sayers, deserves accolades for a Sayers conference, replete with a full production of Busman s Honeymoon, that she organized on the campus of Grove City College in Pennsylvania (October 2000). There I met Laura Simmons, who sent me a copy of Sayers s essay Sacred Plays, and whose forthcoming book on Sayers s theology I look forward to reading. At the conference I was especially enriched
12 xii A cknowledgments by the company and conversation of Flora Armetta, who, I suspect, will write her own book on Sayers someday. I also wish to thank my colleagues at Messiah College, who have contributed to an intellectually stimulating and personally encouraging environment. Two in particular have left their mark on this book: theater historian Valerie Smith, who introduced me to performance studies, and church historian Douglas Jacobsen, who introduced me to Radical Orthodoxy and other important constructs energizing my performance. No less important are sculptor Ted Prescott and painter Cathy Prescott, whose joy and insight during numerous lengthy conversations about creativity, theology, sometimes Sayers, more often C. S. Lewis, and too often postmodernism, infused this project with love.
