Bauer developed her reputation first as a member of the experimental Angels of Light Free Theater, which flourished for ten years before its cast was impacted by AIDS. Bauer then transitioned to work in costume design, becoming one of the Bay Area’s most respected and celebrated. She designed for major theaters like American Conservatory Theatre (A.C.T.) and Berkeley Rep, as well as experimental companies like First Voice and Theater Yugen.
