Description

Arthur Miller: A Life in Play. This biography offers new insights into the life and work of one of the twentieth century's greatest playwrights. Born in 1915, Arthur Miller wrote plays that continue to be performed and studied around the world, including The Crucible, A View from the Bridge, All My Sons, and Death of a Salesman. Miller's personal life was marked by significant events, including his marriage to actress Marilyn Monroe in 1956. This biography sheds new light on how their relationship informed his subsequent great plays, and provides a detailed account of Miller's experiences with the House Un-American Activities Committee in 1956. With meticulous research based on previously unavailable papers, this book is a gripping and authoritative portrait of one of America's most important playwrights.
