Alum Sian Heder (LTP ’98), who won the 2022 Oscar for Best Adapted Screenplay for her film CODA, has a new movie out today: Being Heumann

Based on a true story, Being Heumann follows disability rights activist Judy Heumann who, in 1977, lead a historic 28-day occupation of San Francisco’s Federal Building, uniting protesters in a fight for accessibility laws and equal rights.
