LEXINGTON, Ky. (May 6, 2021) American theatre researchers will benefit from the major discovery of correspondence between two of the nation’s most storied playwrights Tennessee Williams and Eugene O’Neill. University of Kentucky Professor Herman Daniel Farrell III, a playwright and noted O’Neill scholar, found the letter while doing research in the archives at Yale University.
The newly discovered letter gives readers an idea of the impact the two celebrated artists had on the other. The correspondence, penned by the critically acclaimed Williams in 1945 not long after the success of his work The Glass Menagerie speaks to his appreciation of a new work of Nobel Prize laureate O’Neill The Iceman Cometh. Williams’ letter expressed admiration for O’Neill’s play describing it as “an unique dramatic achievement.”

The Amazon.com Inc. founder s heirs may have to pay more than $36 billion if the president succeeds in closing a loophole that helps the rich transfer much of their fortunes tax-free at death.
Under current rules, whoever inherits the Amazon shares Bezos bought in 1994 for $10,000, worth $180 billion today, will receive a so-called step-up in basis, wiping out any capital gains tax liability. Biden s plan would close that loophole and apply the top capital gains tax immediately when assets transfer to wealthy heirs.
