Abstract

Arthur Miller is a famous American playwright of the twentieth century. He has acquired a notorious celebrity through his wide range of artistic contribution to American literature in general and theatre in particular. He was born in October of 1915, in New York City. His father was a famous ladies-wear manufacturer whose wealth was ravaged and ruined by the economic paralysis that accompanied the Great Depression of the 1930's. This would very clearly shape and determine Miller’s life as a young man during the Great Depression and taught him the insecurities of modern existence. Suffering bitter poverty, Miller after graduation from high school, worked in a warehouse to hoar some money to be able to attend the University of Michigan. There he started writing plays.
