Arthur Miller by Martin Gottfried, Paperback | Indigo Chapters

Arthur Miller has been delivering powerful drama to the stage for decades with such masterpieces asDeath of a Salesman, The Crucible, andA View from the Bridge. But, remarkably, no one has yet told the full story of Miller's own extraordinary life-a rich life, much of it shrouded from public view. To achieve this groundbreaking portrait of the artist and the man, the award-winning drama critic and biographer Martin Gottfried masterfully draws on his interviews, on Miller's voluminous lifelong correspondence, and on the annotated scripts and notebooks that reveal Miller's creative process in stunning detail. From Miller's childhood and adolescence in Depression-era New York City to the 1947 playAll My Sonsthat established him as a voice to be reckoned with...from his heroic defiance of the House Un-American Activities Committee during the McCarthy years to his most unlikely pairing with Marilyn Monroe: Here is a highly acclaimed book that is "compulsively readable" (Booklist, starred review). | Arthur Miller by Martin Gottfried, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
