Description:“Henry Miller’s life was not a peaceful one. He would have been bored to death with peace. Struggle, accomplishment, defeat, victory— all these were his portion.” Thus the author describes the life of Henry Miller— the man with the genius for directing and acting, the possessor of the deep artistic sensitiveness, and the unique personality. He is called “the most colorful figure of the modern American theater.” Henry Miller started acting when very young, first in vaudeville, and stock as A salaried actor, then buying the Princess Theater in New York on a shoestring and organizing his company. He made and lost several fortunes in his time, and at his death stood at the head of his profession, owner and master of his own theater. He had a passion for plays and their productions, and a never-failing appreciation of good acting. He discovered the talent of Maude Adams when she played a small part with him in his early days, he co-started and co-produced with Margaret Anglin, he raised Alla Nazimova to her heights, he starred Walter Hampden early in his career, he introduced Ruth Chatterton to New York audiences when she was very young. The greatest playwrights were associated with him; “he was,” the author says, “the perfect playwright’s producer, much beloved by his writers.”We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
