'If people behaved in the way nations do, they would all be put in straitjackets. ' -Tennessee Williams
You couldn't blame U.S. playwright Tennessee Williams if, after his first major plays became enormous hits, he never wrote another word; after all, he was still in his mid-30s when he completed both The Glass Menagerie and A Streetcar Named Desire in the 1940s. However, Williams continued to produce a steady volume of work until a bizarre choking accident killed him in 1983 at the age of 71.
