Lindsay Anderson and Paul Scofield both very interested in play. They want to hold scripts and are meeting in London next week.' I think it is a promising new development and we should hold our American horses until Scofield and Anderson have met and come to some conclusion." After detailing his search for a lost 'agreement.' he continues: 'Hayes.also asked me to send him one-act plays and I'm getting a couple typed up to submit to him.I carry a cholesterol diet list to all restaurants now and an almost fanatical in my adherence to it." After signing Williams adds a handwritten post script: 'Will be in Key West till end of August." Williams has also crossed out a partial paragraph about monthly statements on the first page and has made a few handwritten corrections throughout. The play was "Camino Real." Audrey Wood 1905-1985 literary agent from 1920's - 1981 when she suffered a stroke; clients included Williams from 1939 William Inge Preston Jones Robert Anderson Arthur Kopit and Murray Schisgal; known for her devotion to her playwrights persuading producers to do their plays providing emotional support and even lending them money.

WILLIAMS Tennessee
Typescript: The Rose Tattoo A Play in Three Parts
1950. Softcover. Near Fine. Carbon typescript. Quarto. 75pp. but missing final two pages. Sheets bradbound in the blue "Liebling-Wood" folder of Williams's agent Audrey Wood. The light blue wrappers a bit worn with a couple tears and the original brads replaced very good plus. It's labeled "Third draft Europe September 1950" on the first sheet along with a pencil notation that reads "not final draft." This copy also includes the epigraph from the poem "Anabasis" on the first sheet that was used intermittently by Williams throughout his many draft. The Rose Tattoo is Williams's first full-length comedy which he called his "love-play to the world." It concerns a Sicilian widow from the Gulf Coast and her attempts to protect her attractive young daughter while dealing with her own renewed passions. This draft was completed after learning that Elia Kazan had passed on directing the play to do a film with Arthur Miller a snub that greatly disheartened Williams. Nevertheless the play which debuted on Broadway in early 1951 won the Tony Awards for best play as well as best actor and best actress awards for Eli Wallach and Maureen Stapleton. A 1955 film version was also a success starring Burt Lancaster and Anna Magnani who was won the Oscar for best actress. unknown books

Williams Tennessee and Donald Windham
You Touched Me!; a romantic comedy in three acts; suggested by a short story of the same name by D.H. Lawrence
New York/Los Angeles: Samuel French. Good. c.1947 1942. Unstated edition. Softcover. light handling wear a little browning at spine and some dampstaining which for some weird reason has affected only the four photographic plates and nothing else. 4 B&W photographs An early play by Williams -- the next-to-last of his so-called "apprentice plays" -- written in collaboration with his longtime friend Donald Windham. Originally written in 1942 it wasn't staged on Broadway until the Fall of 1945 an event probably made possible by the success of "The Glass Menagerie" which had opened that Spring and was still running. It was the last Broadway appearance of Montgomery Clift before he decamped permanently for Hollywood; he appears in all four of the photos that illustrate this volume albeit at a great distance in one of them. .
