Arthur Miller

Arthur Asher Miller (New York, October 17, 1915 - Roxbury, February 10, 2005) was a prominent playwright, writer, journalist, and screenwriter in the United States for over sixty years. Recognized for works such as "The Crucible," "All My Sons," and "Death of a Salesman," Miller left an indelible mark on 20th-century American literature and cinema. Born into a wealthy Jewish family in New York, he experienced adversity during the Great Depression. His most celebrated work, "Death of a Salesman," earned him the Pulitzer Prize and international recognition. His personal life included marriages to Mary Slattery and Marilyn Monroe. The relationship with Monroe, though popular in the media, impacted his career and private life. Throughout his life, Miller wrote plays such as "Incident at Vichy" and "After the Fall," and his artistic legacy endures beyond his death in 2005.
