In the interviews, the playwright covers at length and in detail his plays and his background. He comments as well on such subjects as the differences between African Americans and whites, his call for more black theater companies, and his belief that African Americans made a mistake in assimilating themselves into the white mainstream. He also talks about his major influences, what he calls his "four B's"-- the blues, writers James Baldwin and Amiri Baraka, and painter Romare Bearden. Wilson also discusses his writing process and his multiple collaborations with director Lloyd Richards. 000302608 60010 $$aWilson, August$$vInterviews. 000302608 650_0 $$aDramatists, American$$y20th century$$vInterviews. 000302608 650_0 $$aAfrican Americans in literature. 000302608 650_0 $$aHistorical drama$$xAuthorship. 000302608 7001_ $$aBryer, Jackson R. 000302608 7001_ $$aHartig, Mary C. 000302608 85200 $$bgen$$hPS3573.I45677$$iZ63$$i2006 000302608 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:302608$$pGLOBAL_SET 000302608 980__ $$aBIB 000302608 980__ $$aBOOK 000302608 994__ $$aC0$$bISE
