==Biography==
She was born in New York City to Jack Skurnick and Fay Kleinman and was educated at the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor, where she earned a BA in psychology while studying playwriting with Kenneth Thorpe Rowe, then did a masters degree at Michigan in early childhood education. She went on to New York University, and graduated with an MA in drama and a Ph.D. in performance studies.
She wrote a column about theater education called ''Schoolbiz'' for four years for ''TheaterWeek'' magazine and has been a contributing editor for ''Theater Crafts'', which became ''Theatre Crafts International'', then ''Entertainment Design,'' then ''Live Design''. She has also written for ''American Theatre'', ''American Film'', ''InTheatre'', ''Playbill'', ''ScriptWriter News'', ''Stages'' and assorted general interest magazines. These include children's magazines, teen magazines ''Seventeen'' and others, and a range of general magazines, such as ''New York Magazine'' and ''Weight Watchers.'' She was a stringer for the ''Detroit Free Press'' and for the ''Ann Arbor News'' in the 1980s. She was the theater reviewer for the ''Ann Arbor News'' from 1987 to 1988 and wrote a theatre column for The Faster Times, an online newspaper.〔(Theater Talk, Napoleon column at ''The Faster Times''. )〕
In the summer of 1977, Napoleon honed her critical skills at the Eugene O'Neill Theater Center's National Critics Institute in Waterford, CT, which she attended on a National Endowment for the Arts grant.
Napoleon has written extensively about the history and issues surrounding the not-for-profit theater in America. Her book about Robert Kalfin and the Chelsea Theater Center is an in-depth history of the life of a theater in the 1960s and '70s. ''Chelsea on the Edge: The Adventures of an American Theater'' (1991) describes on- and off-stage dramas, detailing internal conflicts when a theater that was the darling of critics and audiences was forced to downsize because of changes in funding to the arts. Hal Prince wrote the foreword to the book that found a readership among working artists both because it is one of the first complex studies of regional theater and because of its dramatic structure and narrative.〔''Cambridge Guide to American Theater'' Edited by Don B. Wilmeth and Tice L. Miller, Cambridge University Press, 1993, pp. 105-6.〕〔Davi Napoleon, ''Chelsea on the Edge: The Adventures of an American Theater'', Iowa State University Press, 1991.〕
She has also written many articles about producer/critic Robert Brustein and interviewed critic John Simon for ''The Paris Review''.〔(''The Paris Review'' ), Spring 1977, Issue 142, pp. 300-320.〕
Napoleon has written several plays, including ''Four's Company,'' produced at the Greenwich Mews Theatre in New York City in 1974.〔''Burns Mantle Theater Yearbook: The Best Plays of 1973-1974'', edited by Otis L. Guernsey Jr. (Dodd, Mead). Some details on Napoleon's play, ''Four's Company'', produced at the Greenwich Mews Theater.〕 She was awarded two University of Michigan Hopwood Awards in 1965 and 1966 for plays she wrote as an undergraduate. She later served as a judge for this creative writing contest.〔''The Hopwood Awards: 75 Years of Prized Writing'', Edited by Nicholas Delbanco, Andrea Beauchamp, and Michael Barrett; University of Michigan Press, 2006, p. 222. Napoleon is referenced under her maiden name, Davida Skurnick.〕
