Foundry Member
Jenny Ruymann is a Philadelphia-based writer, performer, and educator, originally hailing from the great state of South Jersey. She is a 2015 graduate from Kenyon College with a degree in Sociology. In her writing, Jenny explores everyday manipulation, connection and its erosion, text messaging, and lesbians. In other words, she writes fan-fiction of her own life. While in Philadelphia, Jenny has worked as a Teaching Artist for the Wilma Theater, a mentor and advisor at Penn Treaty School, and a perennial barista at La Colombe. In addition to being a member of The Foundry, she has been a core writer with Writers on the Rocks, an intern at the Ojai Playwright’s Conference, and most recently a collaborating performer in the forthcoming play – Brian’s House – by Foundry member, Tenara Calem. For her next magic trick, Jenny will be attending law school at Northeastern University in Boston, MA this fall.
