Content: "To Be Young, Gifted, and Black"On this segment of HarperAudio!,
We present excerpts from Lorraine Hansberry's play "To Be Young, Gifted
and Black." In her writing, Hansberry drew heavily on her own experiences
growing up on the south side of Chicago. In 1959 Hansberry's first play,
"A Raisin in the Sun," won the Best Play Award from the New York Drama
Critic's Circle. Only 29 years old at the time, Hansberry was the youngest
American, and the first black playwright, to win this prestigious award."To Be Young, Gifted, And Black" was created from Hansberry's plays, poems,
and writings by her husband Robert Nemiroff. The entire play represents 20
episodes in Hansberry's life. This production stars James Earl Jones, Barbara
Baxley, and Claudia McNeil, and was directed by Gigi Cascio and Robert
Nemiroff.HarperCollins is the copyright owner of the recordings on HarperAudio!
