Autograph Letter Signed: "Paul Green", 1p, 8½x11. Chapel Hill, North Carolina, 1973 April
6. On his personal letterhead to Mr. Pruett. In full: "We all are honored in the work you and
your students are doing!" Dramatist Paul Green (1894-1981), one of the South's most revered
writers, was awarded the 1927 Pulitzer Prize in Drama for In Abraham's Bosom, his first
Broadway play. The work was followed by six additional Broadway plays as well a screenplay,
short story collections and non-fiction books. His pacifist musical Johnny Johnson (1936),
featured music by Kurt Weill written while Green was having an affair with Weill's wife Lotte
Lenya. Beginning with The Lost Colony (1937), Green created "symphonic dramas"
intended for outdoor performance, the first of their kind in the US. Lightly creased. Ink
note (unknown hand) on verso. Fine condition.
