Bio of Blair Brown

Blair Brown discusses her role on stage in the Lincoln Center Theatre production of Sarah Ruhl's The Clean House, and her part in the play winning the prestigious Susan Smith Blackburn Award; explains how she ended up going to drama school and beginning her career in Canada; recalls her role in the triumphant Richard Foreman production of The Threepenny Opera and her anguish over the brief Broadway life of The Secret Rapture; and considers the experience of humanizing so-called "intellectual" plays like Copenhagen and Arcadia.
