Stephen Lang
From Beyond Glory.
Actor Stephen Lang describes his process developing the book Beyond Glory for the stage, why he was drawn to portray eight recipients of the Medal of Honor, and how his tribute is perceived amidst present-day war politics; considers why, with no military background of his own, many of his major roles have been playing military men of varying stripes; reviews his performances in varying roles in multiple productions of Hamlet, and why he’s learned more about the title role in the fifteen years since he’s played it himself than in all the years leading up to it; and declares playwright Aaron Sorkin to be today’s George Bernard Shaw.
