Conversations with Lillian Hellman gathers together a wide selection of interviews with one of the most controversial and influential American playwrights of the twentieth century.
Across these conversations, Lillian Hellman discusses theatre, politics, censorship, feminism, Hollywood, writing, memory, and her public battles with critics and government investigations during the McCarthy era. Sharp, combative, witty, and deeply opinionated, Hellman emerges as both a literary figure and a formidable public intellectual.
