7 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS Thanks go first to the staff at Palgrave Macmillan for a smooth publishing process. I also acknowledge the staffs of Comparative Drama and the International Journal of Ageing and Later Life, which earlier published portions of Chaps. 2 and 5, respectively (see Lipscomb, Performing the Aging Self and The Play s the Thing. ). This project has been simmering on one of my burners for a decade, but the gratitude I feel in completing it reaches back to mentors at all phases of my academic life. Miriam Gilbert and David Hamilton modeled the scholarly rigor and interpersonal warmth that I always hope to emulate, and I would not have pursued an academic career without the encouragement of Daniel Rutenberg. As I decided to focus on age studies and drama, I was fortunate to benefit from the guidance of Lagretta Lenker, Phillip Sipiora, Anthony Kubiak, Richard Dietrich, and especially Sara Deats, who gave me valuable feedback about most of this manuscript and continues to be an amazing role model. So many outstanding scholars generously welcomed me to the field of age studies and can be counted on for kindness and advice; thanks to Cynthia Port, Aagje Swinnen, Margaret Morganroth Gullette, Kate de Medeiros, Teresa Mangum, Roberta Maierhofer, Erin Gentry Lamb, and especially to Leni Marshall. Anthony Ellis also has been on that list, and I mourn that he will never experience old age. I am grateful to Kathleen Woodward for her encouragement when I first ventured to enter this conversation, and to Anne Davis Basting for forging a path in aging and theatre. I will be eternally thankful for the conversation with Elinor Fuchs at the European Network in Aging Studies conference that piqued her vii

8 viii ACKNOWLEDGMENTS curiosity about a dramaturgy of age; her gracious interest in reading and sharing work is among the best developments in my professional life. The scholars with whom I have served on the Modern Language Association Age Studies Forum Executive Committee are truly inspirational; one could not be in better academic company than E. Ann Kaplan, Michelle Masse, Devoney Looser, Elizabeth Gregory, and Sally Chivers. At the University of South Florida Sarasota-Manatee, I am indebted first and foremost to Jane Rose for her leadership and unflagging confidence in me, and to the collegial faculty of the College of Arts and Sciences. I appreciate additional funding from the university for conference travel that contributed to this manuscript. The staff at the Jane Bancroft Cook Library cheerfully helped me track down books, articles and photos. I also appreciate Bonnie Vorenberg and Irene Silver-Stender for going out of their way to ensure I had access to senior-theatre materials. Thanks go to all the undergraduate and graduate students who contributed to my research; one after another, they would begin my project having not really thought about age, and then slowly sound more and more disturbed that the drama sources they read never mentioned performing age. My students continually refresh the great joy I find in teaching. Finally, I am grateful every day for my family, the Barneses and Lipscombs near and far who have unfailingly cheered me on. Not one minute of any of this would matter without the love of my husband, Kevin, and our daughters, Vanessa and Natalie I am blessed indeed to be sharing your lives.
