About the author: Diana Miae Son is an American playwright, television producer, and writer. She is known for her work on American Crime, Law & Order: Criminal Intent, Southland, and Blue Bloods.
Son's first play was called Wrecked On Brecht and was published in 1987. For eight to 10 years, she wrote and produced short plays in the downtown area of Manhattan.
Her first full-length play, Stop Kiss, debuted in 1998. It was critically acclaimed. The play was produced Off-Broadway in 1998 at The Public Theater in New York City. It was extended three times. The play features two women who kiss on the street, and are "grievously injured" in an attack.
After the first night's performance of Stop Kiss, Son realized she would no longer have to do "copyediting, proofreading, waitressing, and temping"jobs she took to support herself before the play came out. It has since been produced by hundreds of theaters. In 2014, Stop Kiss was produced at the Pasadena Playhouse, where it made the Los Angeles Times' "Best of 2014" list.
