We are delighted to welcome Morgan Bassichis as The Action Lab’s newest Artist in Action Fellow. Morgan is a comedic performer, writer, and musician who has been called "a tall child, or, well, a big bird" by The Nation and "fiercely hilarious" by The New Yorker. Most recently they co-edited with Jay Saper and Rachel Valinsky the young adult anti-zionist guidebook, Questions to Ask Before Your Bat Mitzvah. They published a book of to-do lists, The Odd Years, in 2020 and also edited and wrote the introduction to the 2019 reprint of the cult classic The Faggots & Their Friends Between Revolutions. Their performances have been presented by Creative Time, the Kitchen, the New Museum, the Portland Institute for Contemporary Art, and the Whitney Museum. Morgan's recent shows include Can I Be Frank? and A Crowded Field. They have taught widely on humor writing and the creative process and are a somatic coach for community organizers and artists. They have participated in social justice movements for the past twenty years, and have been a member of Jewish Voice for Peace-NYC since 2014. We’re excited to have them at The Action Lab!
