Julia Ann Harris ( December 2 , 1925 - August 24 , 2013 ) was an American actress . Renowned for her classical and contemporary stage work , she received five Tony Awards for Best Actress in a Play . Debuting on Broadway in 1945 , much against the wishes of her mother , who wanted her to 'come out ' as a society debutante , Harris was acclaimed for a complex performance as an isolated 12-year-old girl in the 1950 play The Member of the Wedding , a role she reprised in the 1952 film of the same name , for which she was nominated for the Academy Award for Best Actress . In 1951 , her range was demonstrated as Sally Bowles in the original production of I Am a Camera , for which she won her first Tony award . She subsequently appeared in the 1955 film version . After a lull in the quality of motion pictures she had parts in , the 1960s saw Harris give acclaimed performances in classic films , including The Haunting ( 1963 ) , and what is sometimes considered the screen role that allowed her to best display her talents , Reflections in a Golden Eye ( 1967 ) , in which she played opposite Marlon Brando . A rare method actor , she won Tony awards for The Lark ( 1956 ) , Forty Carats ( 1969 ) , The Last of Mrs. Lincoln ( 1973 ) , and The Belle of Amherst ( 1977 ) . She was also a Grammy Award winner and a three time Emmy Award winner . Harris was inducted into the American Theatre Hall of Fame in 1979 , received the National Medal of Arts in 1994 , and the 2002 Special Lifetime Achievement Tony Award .
Lillian Florence Hellman ( June 20 , 1905 - June 30 , 1984 ) was an American dramatist and screenwriter known for her success as a playwright on Broadway , as well as her Communist sympathies and political activism . She was blacklisted after her appearance before the House Committee on Un-American Activities ( HUAC ) at the height of the anti-communist campaigns of 1947-1952 . Although she continued to work on Broadway in the 1950s , her blacklisting by the American film industry caused a drop in her income . Many praised Hellman for refusing to answer questions by HUAC , but others believed , despite her denial , that she had belonged to the Communist Party . As a playwright , Hellman had many successes on Broadway , including Watch on the Rhine , The Autumn Garden , Toys in the Attic , Another Part of the Forest , The Children 's Hour and The Little Foxes . She adapted her semi-autobiographical play The Little Foxes into a screenplay , which starred Bette Davis and received an Academy Award nomination in 1942 . Hellman was romantically involved with fellow writer and political activist Dashiell Hammett , author of the classic detective novels The Maltese Falcon and The Thin Man , who also was blacklisted for 10 years until his death in 1961 . The couple never married . Hellman 's accuracy was challenged after she brought a libel suit against Mary McCarthy . In 1979 , on The Dick Cavett Show , McCarthy said that every word she writes is a lie , including 'and ' and 'the ' . During the libel suit , investigators found errors in Hellman 's popular memoirs such as Pentimento . They said that the Julia section of Pentimento , which had been the basis for the Oscar-winning 1977 movie of the same name , was actually based on the life of Muriel Gardiner .
Emmanuel Roblès ( 4 May 1914 in Oran , French Algeria - 22 February 1995 in Boulogne , Hauts-de-Seine ) was a French author . He was elected a member of the Académie Goncourt in 1973 .

The House of Bernarda Alba ( Spanish : La casa de Bernarda Alba ) is a play by the Spanish dramatist Federico García Lorca . Commentators have often grouped it with Blood Wedding and Yerma as a rural trilogy . Lorca did not include it in his plan for a trilogy of the Spanish land ( which remained unfinished at the time of his murder ) . Lorca described the play in its subtitle as a drama of women in the villages of Spain . The House of Bernarda Alba was Lorca 's last play , completed on 19 June 1936 , two months before Lorca 's death during the Spanish Civil War . The play was first performed on 8 March 1945 at the Avenida Theatre in Buenos Aires . The play centers on the events of a house in Andalusia during a period of mourning , in which Bernarda Alba ( aged 60 ) wields total control over her five daughters Angustias ( 39 years old ) , Magdalena ( 30 ) , Amelia ( 27 ) , Martirio , ( 24 ) , and Adela ( 20 ) . The housekeeper ( La Poncia ) and Bernarda 's elderly mother ( María Josefa ) also live there . The deliberate exclusion of any male character from the action helps build up the high level of sexual tension that is present throughout the play . Pepe el Romano , the love interest of Bernarda 's daughters and suitor of Angustias , never appears on stage . The play explores themes of repression , passion , and conformity , and inspects the effects of men upon women .
Federico del Sagrado Corazón de Jesús García Lorca ( Spanish pronunciation : [ feðeˈɾiko ðel saˈɣɾaðo koɾaˈθon de xeˈsuz ɣaɾˈθi.a ˈloɾka ] ; 5 June 1898 - 19 August 1936 ) , known as Federico García Lorca [ a ] ( English : /ɡɑːrˌsiːə ˈlɔːrkə/ gar-SEE-ə LOR-kə ) , was a Spanish poet , playwright , and theatre director . García Lorca achieved international recognition as an emblematic member of the Generation of '27 , a group consisting of mostly poets who introduced the tenets of European movements ( such as symbolism , futurism , and surrealism ) into Spanish literature . He was killed by Nationalist forces at the beginning of the Spanish Civil War . His remains have never been found .

In describing his three-play work , The Orphans ' Home Cycle , the drama critic for the Wall Street Journal said this : Foote , who died last March , left behind a masterpiece , one that will rank high among the signal achievements of American theater in the 20th century . In 2000 , he was awarded the National Medal of Arts .

Eugene Gladstone O'Neill ( October 16 , 1888 - November 27 , 1953 ) was an American playwright and Nobel laureate in Literature . His poetically titled plays were among the first to introduce into U.S. drama techniques of realism earlier associated with Russian playwright Anton Chekhov , Norwegian playwright Henrik Ibsen , and Swedish playwright August Strindberg . The drama Long Day 's Journey into Night is often numbered on the short list of the finest U.S. plays in the 20th century , alongside Tennessee Williams 's A Streetcar Named Desire and Arthur Miller 's Death of a Salesman . O'Neill 's plays were among the first to include speeches in American English vernacular and involve characters on the fringes of society . They struggle to maintain their hopes and aspirations , but ultimately slide into disillusionment and despair . Of his very few comedies , only one is well-known ( Ah , Wilderness ! ) . Nearly all of his other plays involve some degree of tragedy and personal pessimism .

Three Sisters ( Russian : Три сeстры́ , romanized : Tri sestry ) is a play by the Russian author and playwright Anton Chekhov . It was written in 1900 and first performed in 1901 at the Moscow Art Theatre . The play is sometimes included on the short list of Chekhov 's outstanding plays , along with The Cherry Orchard , The Seagull and Uncle Vanya .
Anton Pavlovich Chekhov ( Russian : Антон Павлович Чехов [ note 1 ] , tr . Antón Pávlovič Čéhov , IPA : [ ɐnˈton ˈpavɫəvʲɪtɕ ˈtɕɛxəf ] ; 29 January 1860 [ note 2 ] - 15 July 1904 [ note 3 ] ) was a Russian playwright and short-story writer who is considered to be among the greatest writers of short fiction in history . His career as a playwright produced four classics , and his best short stories are held in high esteem by writers and critics . Along with Henrik Ibsen and August Strindberg , Chekhov is often referred to as one of the three seminal figures in the birth of early modernism in the theatre . Chekhov practiced as a medical doctor throughout most of his literary career : Medicine is my lawful wife , he once said , and literature is my mistress . Chekhov renounced the theatre after the reception of The Seagull in 1896 , but the play was revived to acclaim in 1898 by Konstantin Stanislavski 's Moscow Art Theatre , which subsequently also produced Chekhov 's Uncle Vanya and premiered his last two plays , Three Sisters and The Cherry Orchard . These four works present a challenge to the acting ensemble as well as to audiences , because in place of conventional action Chekhov offers a theatre of mood and a submerged life in the text . Chekhov had at first written stories to earn money , but as his artistic ambition grew , he made formal innovations which have influenced the evolution of the modern short story . He made no apologies for the difficulties this posed to readers , insisting that the role of an artist was to ask questions , not to answer them .
