==Early life==
Gearhart grew up in the Appalachian mountains of Virginia. She was raised by her grandmother and mother after her parents divorced and the influence of these two would shape her thoughts on the roles and importance of women. Another important influence in her life were the many movies Gearhart watched thanks to the local theater her grandmother owned. Looking back, she said, "There was another undercurrent going on. That was my lesbianism. From when I was ten years old, I knew that I wasn't going to have children."〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://nwda.orbiscascade.org/ark:/80444/xv81757 )〕
Gearhart attended an all-women's institution, Sweet Briar College near Lynchburg, Virginia. She graduated with a B.A. in Drama and English in 1952. At Bowling Green State University she obtained a master's degree in theater and public address in 1953. She continued on at University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, getting her Ph.D. in theater in 1956, with the intent of pursuing a life of academia.
