This is a short article by a journalist. It attempts to summarize my long academic book Shakespeare's Dark Lady; Amelia Bassano Lanier, The Woman behind Shakespeare's Plays? This is not a new subject. I announced it at the Washington Shakespeare Festival at the Smithsonian around 2007, and published an article on it as a new paradigm in 2009.I welcome an informed debate, but the best place to start is to become familiar with the book, then to discuss with me the additional unpublished research.
