William Goldman

William Goldman’s depiction of the inner workings of Broadway productions and the big personalities associated with them is very revealing. It was essential reading for me when I worked on my first Broadway show.

An unvarnished, deeply researched biography of one of America’s greatest playwrights.

Frank Rich

Boris Aronson was unquestionably the greatest scenic designer of the 20th century. Frank Rich and Lisa Jalowetz Aronson, Boris’s widow, did an amazing job of presenting the brilliance and artistry of his work.
