Jane Chambers was one of the
first American playwrights to create openly lesbian characters who were
comfortable with their own homosexuality. She believed that this would help
eliminate homophobia. While at Goddard, she met Beth Allen (born January 11,
1959) , who was to become her lover, manager, and devoted lifelong
companion. Subsequently Chambers’s death, Allen published a collection of
her poetry as a memorial to her courage and spirit.
