Question

First, restating the question to ensure understanding: the prompt presents two options, True or False, about Anna Deavere Smith being an acclaimed American performance artist famous for work with larger-than-life sized puppets in the 1970s.
Option 1: True. This claims that Smith is renowned for puppets of substantial size. In reality, Smith is best known for her verbatim theatre and documentary-style works, such as Twilight: Los Angeles, 1992, and Fires in the Mirror, which are built from interviews and real speech rather than large-scale puppetry. The assertion about puppets and 1970s fame mischaracterizes her signature approach and the era of her breakthrough.
Option 2: False. This negates the specific claim about puppets and the 1970s. The things to check are whether she used larger-than-life puppets and whether that produced fame in the 1970s. Both elements are inaccurate: her fame arose from contemporary documentary theatre and performance, not from puppet-based work in the 1970s. Therefore, this option aligns with the established history of her career and corrects the misattribution of puppetry and the time period.
To summarize each option's logic: Option 1 asserts puppetry and 1970s fame, which is inconsistent with Smith's widely documented emphasis on verbatim theatre and interviewing-based performances; Option 2 rejects that mischaracterization by asserting False, which is consistent with her actual artistic stance and career timeline.

Anna Deavere Smith is an acclaimed American performance artist made famous by her work with larger-than-life sized puppets in the 1970s.
