Tenessee Williams

Thomas Lanier Williams was born on March 26, 1911 in Columbus, Mississippi. He lived a traditional home and had two other siblings. He had one sister named Rose and a brother named Brian. His father was a shoemaker and his mom was a housewife who stayed home and cooked and cleaned. His father and mother were repeatedly in fights about their wealth. His father was a raging alcoholic and often fell asleep with his liquor bottle in his hand. As he grew up he moved from state to state looking for a place to settle down. When he moved to New Orleans he changed his name to Tennessee because Tennessee is the state that where his father was born. In the 1950's many things were happening that made life hard.

His writings had a social impact on many people in America. This play was so good that in 1947 the movie productions made this into a movie and it one two Pulitzer Prizes. The ones that were widely known though out the county were "Cat on a Hot Tin Roof", "A Street car Named Desire" and, "The Glass Menagerie". When he writes he writes with myth and we as Americans love myth. His parents like all Americans only made about 12,000 dollars a year. That is why this play is a prime example of his life and his childhood.
