Early life and education

Kauffman received her MFA in directing from the University of California, San Diego.

Kauffman has said: "I'm attracted to plays that need the theater and belong only to the theater,...I've always been very interested in writers who have a kind of mystery to them--something that makes me work a little hard and is compelling and mysterious...trying to get at the world from a slightly odd angle....I do love working with a playwright more than once."[3]

Kauffman directed The Thugs by Adam Bock Off-Broadway at the Soho Rep in 2006.[4] She received the 2007 Obie Award for direction for this production.[5]

Kauffman directed Amy Herzog's Belleville Off-Broadway at the New York Theatre Workshop in 2013.
