Remembering Arthur Miller

Christopher Bigsby

When Arthur Miller died, on 10 February 2005, aged eighty-nine, it was fifty-six years to the day after the opening night of Death of a salesman on Broadway and almost seventy years since he wrote his first play. This book is a celebration of a life committed to writing, to upholding liberty and to speaking out against injustice. Over eighty pieces from actors, writers, directors, reveiwers and others who knew or worked with Miller, attest to the enduring legacy that he left and the honour in which he is held. This book is concluded with an in-depth interview conducted by Christopher Bigsby in which Arthur Miller candidly discusses his life and work, from his upbringing in Harlem and his early writing, to his marriages and the McCarthy era, through to his later plays.
