That was all over the wire when I got to work this morning - but to be honest I thought he was already dead :eek: so - it's sad - but I always just assumed he was an old dead playwright...:distress: May he rest in peace.

Oh, no! The last of the Marilyn connections. That is very sad. I hope his daughter is ok. :distress:
Rest in peace, sir.

I read he had 3 children. Was he the husband who continued to put flowers at Marilyns grave for years after she died?

No, that was Joe DiMaggio. :wavey: Oh, I didn't know he had 3 children - I only know Rebecca Miller.

I heard at work, so sad, he was one of my favourite playwrights, but he lived more than Kazan, there's been some justice in that.

And his daughter Rebecca is married to Daniel Day-Lewis, whose father was also a writer-a poet, I think.

I consider Miller one of the more inconsequential playwrights in the American canon.

And nothing you say can change my mind, Romy!

Why should I, I totally agree :nod: . I thought you were talking about canon in a Bloom kind of way.

And nothing you say can change my mind, Romy!I don't understand. You said he was "inconsequential" earlier on. Am I just dense? :confused:

I thought he was being facetious the second time, but I could be wrong. :D

I thought that, too, but it seems real. And it would also mean that he thinks Arthur Miller is an inconsequential playwrite.

Ha, I know. I actually knew that was wrong, and decided to impose it on the world anyway. I was thinking "well, they write plays. I think I will arbitrarily change the spelling to suit my mad whims." :)
