About this user

S. Bear Bergman is a writer, a theater artist, an instigator, a gender-jammer, and a good example of what happens when you overeducate a contrarian. Ze is also the author of Butch Is a Noun (Suspect Thoughts Press, 2006) and three award-winning solo performances, as well as a frequent contributor to anthologies on all manner of topics from the sacred to the extremely profane.

Ex Post Papa, Bear's first touring solo performance, had its premiere in April of 2002, and has since traveled all over the US, including stops at the National Gay and Lesbian Theater Festival 2002 (where Ex Post Papa won the award for Best Socio-Political Play), and the National Transgender Theater Festival 2003, where Ex Post Papa was a curated production. Clearly Marked, Bear's next show, had its world premiere at the 2004 National Gay and Lesbian Theater Festival, where it won Best Socio-Political Play and Best of the Festival before beginning its North American tour. Hir most recent piece, Monday Night in Westerbork, also premiered at the National Gay and Lesbian Theater Festival, and commanded the Most Promising New Work Award, making Bear the only artist ever to win judges' awards at three Festivals. On the stage, Clearly Marked and Monday Night in Westerbork are still touring the country, inspiring and enlightening audiences across the US and Canada.

On the print side, Butch Is a Noun began selling briskly months before its release and has garnered generous praise from such luminaries as Kate Bornstein, Carol Queen, Hanne Blank, and Ivan Coyote. Butch Is a Noun has quickly been adopted into classrooms, doctoral theses, book groups, and teaching moments in a variety of places, but Bear is most proud of the places where it lives on the bookshelf right next to someone's reading chair or bed, getting slowly and fondly bedraggled.

Bear is also a frequent lecturer and at colleges and universities regarding issues relating to gender and sexuality, and has advised the staff of numerous institutions on their policies regarding transgendered and transsexual students. An observant Jew, Bear also speaks extensively about how hir religious and cultural lives have shaped one another, and the intersection of identities, especially as it relates to being both Jewish and queer.

A longtime activist on behalf of anyone who wants to learn and be different at the same time (particularly queer/trans youth and students), Bear continues to tour and lecture about topics close to hir heart, pausing frequently to encourage and admire youth activists. Less recently, ze was also one of the five original founders of the first Gay/Straight Alliances, a frequent lecturer at high schools and colleges on the subject of making schools safe for GLBT students, and a founding commission member of what is now called the Massachusetts Safe Schools Project. Bear also considers hir recent mastery of East Coast Swing a notable achievement, but is aware that probably not everyone agrees.

Bear was educated at Concord Academy, Hampshire College - where ze studied solo performance with Peggy Shaw of Split Britches Theater - and at the University Of Massachusetts. Ze currently resides in Northampton, Massachusetts, where ze enjoys the warm companionship of hir handsome dog, Ulric, and a small, treasured group of intimate friends and lovers.

Bear's work is/has been supported by sponsorship from The Fund For Women Artists, the UMass Arts Council, the Massachusetts Cultural Council, The Millay Colony, and the generosity of private donors.
