Brenda last appeared at the Alliance as Violet Weston in August: Osage County. Before that she may be best remembered in Sandra Deer’s Galbaby and The Subject Tonight Is Love and Kenny Leon’s production of Angels in America. Through the years she has worked with almost every theatre in Atlanta and was a resident artist at Theater Emory and member of the Emory faculty from 1983 to 2000, where she was honored by her colleagues with the establishment of the Brenda Bynum Award. She is currently commissioned to develop a performance based on the life and work of acclaimed Georgia author and human rights activist Lillian Smith, which will premiere in April 2013. She still loves Samuel Beckett, but her heart belongs to Royce and Whit and her faithful sidekick, RCB.
