Matthew Shepard's death became a national symbol of intolerance, but for the people of the town, the event was deeply personal. In the aftermath, Mois?s Kaufman and members of the Tectonic Theater Project went to Laramie and conducted more than 200 interviews with its people"--Provided by publisher.
