Rachel Corrie, an idealistic 23-year-old American from Olympia, Washington, was crushed to death by a bulldozer driven by an Israeli soldier in Gaza on March 16, 2003. She was protesting collective punishment and the destruction of Palestinian homes. British actor Alan Rickman and Guardian journalist Katherine Viner wrote a one-woman play, My Name is Rachel Corrie, using excerpts from Corrie's journals and letters. From her raw material they fashioned a solid, intelligent piece of writing, concentrating on Corrie as a human being--a well-intentioned, quite intelligent, somewhat naive, admirably modest, occasionally presumptuous young American woman.
