Playwright Quiara Alegria Hudes talks about growing up in Philadelphia, her Puerto Rican and Jewish family, and finding her voice as a writer.

Pulitzer-prize winning playwright QUIARA ALEGRIA HUDES grew up in West Philadelphia in a Puerto Rican and Jewish family. At home and in her neighborhood, she juggled three languages – Spanish, English and Spanglish – and her Latino and white identities.  In her new memoir My Broken Language, she talks about finding her voice in the sea of languages, the powerful women in her family that inspired her and her path to writing. We’ll also talk with Hudes about her collaboration with Lin Manuel Miranda on the Tony-winning musical “In the Heights” which comes out next month on film.
