WILLIAMS PLAYS<br />
sixty short stories, over a hundred poems, dozens of short plays<br />
and screenplays, and an autobiography. The awards he received<br />
are too numerous to mention, but the most impressive include<br />
two Pulitzer Prizes, four New York Drama Critics Awards, a Tony<br />
Award, and an honorary doctorate from Harvard University.<br />
He was honored by President Carter at the Kennedy Center in<br />
1979 for his life’s work. In 1995, Tennessee Williams joined the<br />
small group of people honored by the U.S. Post Offi ce when<br />
they released a stamp bearing his image honoring him for his<br />
playwriting work. Williams is undoubtedly one of the greatest<br />
American playwrights to ever live, and throughout his tumultuous<br />
life he created many rich plays and characters for the theatre.<br />
