Sally Sugarman, a longtime Bennington College faculty member and champion of live theater, died last Wednesday in Albany, New York. She was 91.
Sugarman, of Shaftsbury, taught childhood studies at Bennington College for 35 years and served as the founding director of the schoolâs early childhood center. She was the author of two books, âIf Kids Could Vote,â a study of childrenâs perceptions of politics and media, and âHow Shakespeare is Presented to Children.â
As president of Oldcastle Theatre Companyâs board of trustees, Sugarman worked to ensure that the company remained in Bennington after the Bennington Center for the Arts in 2011 elected not to continue to rent it space, according to Eric Peterson, a founder and former artistic director of the group.
