Arthur Miller

Arthur Miller was an American playwright, novelist, and essayist, widely regarded as one of the greatest dramatists of the 20th century. His work often explored social and psychological themes, the moral struggles of the American middle class, and the complexities of personal and social responsibility. He was significantly influenced by the Great Depression, which impacted his family and his views on the insecurity of modern existence. Miller's plays, such as 'Death of a Salesman,' 'All My Sons,' and 'The Crucible,' are cornerstones of American realism and continue to be widely performed and studied.
