Her Naked Skin is challenging and epic and human. Some parts are hard to watch. Other moments blossom with the blush of new love. The story is soft and hard, full and empty, peaceful and violent. Contradictions are constant. Turmoil is constant. Just like life. Welcome to this exciting story where women take center stage in the struggle for equal treatment and the right to vote. Welcome to 1913.

When I chose this script in 2015, the possibility of the first woman in history being sworn in as U.S. President shimmered with clarity. The potential of a woman in the White House was real, and women voters were a much discussed factor. Then in October of 2016, calls for women to be denied their right to vote circulated in the news. The tweet #repealthe19th circulated across the country, a reference to the U.S. constitutional amendment that granted women’s suffrage less than 100 years ago. Voting rights, voting conspiracies, voter fraud, voter disenfranchisement and voter suppression are national topics every four years. Welcome to 2017.

What is worth fighting for? Where do we find strength? We are proud to present the regional premiere of Her Naked Skin. We’re so glad you’re here.

— Richard E. Hess, director

MARY LU AND DICK AFT Cincinnati became home to Dick and Mary Lu Aft in 1987 when Dick began his 14-year presidency of the United Way of Greater Cincinnati. That was also the year that Mary Lu began 28 years of Friends of the Public Library Leadership. As Dick continues to teach, consult and write books about United Way history, Mary Lu still spends three days each week volunteering as a Library Friend. She is also Vice Chair of the Fifty Year Club alumni association of their shared alma mater, Knox College. Dick serves as a member of the CCMpower Executive Committee and Chair of the Community Advisory Board of UC’s Hoxworth’s Blood Center.

Mary Lu and Dick consider CCM “their conservatory” and believe it to be one of the best in the world. They should know, as they have enjoyed performances all over the world while working as a volunteer team committed to increasing non-profit services to people in need.

If it hadn’t been for the investment that others made in our education, we wouldn’t be pictured here. Now, it’s our turn. We plan to support CCM for our lifetimes. Then, our planned gift will endow our current level of CCMpower support for future generations of talented students. So much was done for us. It’s the least we could, and should, do for others.
