Tennessee Williams
(Mississippi, 1911 - New York, 1983) Thomas Lanier Williams III, better known by his stage name Tennessee Williams, was a prominent American playwright. He graduated with a degree in Philosophy and Letters from the University of Iowa, and in 1948 he won the Pulitzer Prize for Drama for A Streetcar Named Desire, and in 1955 for Cat on a Hot Tin Roof. Critics of the genre maintain that Williams wrote in a Southern Gothic style. His characters are often alien to social conventions. His work is well-known because many were made into films, with scripts by Tennessee Williams himself in most cases.
