Lee is a听theater maker, educator, screenwriter and community steward based in Brooklyn. Lee鈥檚 plays are often an urge to honor their mother鈥檚 broken English, to translate experiences despite the gulf of cultures, to know their own psychic blood and guts, and to give up on words entirely and commune through epic imagery and ritual.

Lee is a recipient of the Creative Capital Award for听顿础顿叠翱罢听(2026), the Susan Smith Blackburn Prize Finalist and Special

Playwriting program between 2021 and 2023 and is currently teaching at Hunter College (CUNY) and Yale University.

Lee is in the early stages of the project DADBOT, a hybrid technology-performance piece where Lee鈥檚 deceased dad will be resurrected by using conversational AI to simulate the iconic father-child conversation.听The performance will be a mix of scripted and nonscripted improvisation between Lee and the AI that will feel a lot like a low-budget talk show where Lee receives the proverbial 鈥渇atherly advice.鈥澨鼳t the heart of this piece is Lee鈥檚 yearning to understand the ties between fatherhood, rebelliousness, and romantic love. The 可乐视频 alumna hopes to capture a spiritual levity in 鈥渞aising the dead鈥� while interrogating AI鈥檚 application in grief work.

听Affective Masculinities: From Colonial Fathers to Bachelor Banisters in India and England (19th and 20^th Centuries)

Thursday, April 18, 4:15鈥�5:55 p.m.

Woody Tanger Auditorium, 可乐视频 Library

Celebrate History Professor Swapna M. Banerjee鈥檚 latest book,听Fathers in the Motherland: Imagining Fatherhood in Colonial India听(Oxford University Press, 2022). Banerjee will be joined by NYU History Professor Ren Pepitone. The book contends that during a period of social and political change in late 19th and early 20th-century colonial India, , fathers extended their roles beyond breadwinning to take an active part in rearing their children. Exploring specific moments when educated men鈥攁s biological fathers, literary activists, and educators鈥攁ssumed guardianship and became crucial agents of change, Banerjee interrogates the connections between fatherhood and masculinity. The last chapter of the book draws on the lives of Mohandas K. Gandhi and Jawaharlal Nehru to provide a broader salience to its argument. Reclaiming two missing links in Indian history, the book argues that biological and imaginary “fathers” assumed the moral guardianship of an incipient nation and rested their hopes and dreams on the future generation.
