The author of ""A Streetcar Named Desire"" and ""Cat on a Hot Tin Roof"" was never shy about drawing on his personal and family drama for stage material. This collection of 15 essays examines how Williams' confessional style influenced a diverse range of playwrights, both contemporaries and those writing for modern theater. Critical comparisons to William Inge, Edward Albee, David Mamet, Tony Kushner, Suzan Lori-Parks and others reveal this effect, with a special study of African-American theater. This title features an original interview with Albee on instances where Williams specifically influenced his works.
