Her work is part history (personal-area-occult), part installation, often multi-media, with great mastery of the craft of theater, sculpture, spoken word, and visual special effects.She is the recipient of many awards and grants, studied with Robert Wilson, and is the sister of painter Robert Yarber, Laney leaves her fans and even her diva-to-diva antagonists crying for more.
