HONOR ROLL!

Jacquelyn co-founded Honor Roll! in 2018, an advocacy group for women+ playwrights over 40, whose goal is inclusion in theater. She also serves on its Executive Committee with Peppur Chambers, Cynthia Cooper, Cheryl Davis, Olga Humphrey, Bayla Travis, Diana Yanez. She led the effort to publish, and wrote the preface for, the Honor Roll! publications, She Persisted: Short Plays by Women over 40 and She Persisted: 100 Monologues by Women over 40. Jacquelyn also started a small “Brain Trust” of organizational leaders, who brainstorm ideas to increase inclusion in theater for women over 50.
