US dramatist Edward Albee, famous for writing Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf? in 1962.

US dramatist. Associated with the Theatre of the Absurd, he is best known for his play Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf? (1962, filmed 1966), a grim depiction of a miserable marriage. His other internationally-performed plays include The Zoo Story (1960), The American Dream (1961), and Tiny Alice (1965). A Delicate Balance (1966) and Seascape (1975) both won Pulitzer Prizes, and Three Tall Women (1994) marked his return to critical acclaim.

In 2002, Albee premiered two new plays on Broadway in New York City, The Goat, or Who is Sylvia? (winner of the 2002 Tony Award for Best Play) and Occupant.
