Editorial Reviews

Drawing on old maps, paintings, portraits, and other archive materials, the series not only presents a factual outline of the writers' lives but also the social and historical background to their writings. Great way to bring the authors into the classroom! 30 minutes each/Not Rated, grades 4-12.

4.0 out of 5 stars Eugene O'Neill Irish-American playwright, September 27, 2003

This review is from: Eugene O'Neill [VHS] (VHS Tape)

This inspired biography of Eugene O'Neill, the Irish-American playwright, dwells on his Irishness and his family background to show how his later life was shaped by his early experiences. The roots of his semi-autobiographically play, "Long Day's Journey into Night," are given in detail. And particular emphasis is given to his beginnings in the theater.
