About the author

Lanford Wilson

American playwright and co-founder of Circle Repertory Company, Wilson pioneered an intimate, naturalistic drama centered on outsiders and misfits. Talley's Folly won the Pulitzer Prize. His plays often take place in specific communities—the Ozarks, a Baltimore rooming house—with the texture of lived experience.
