The world of American theatre has lost a legendary playwright: Edward Albee. The man who wrote the infamously scathing Who's Afraid Of Virginia Woolf?" (later a groundbreaking 1966 film, directed by Mike Nichols and starring Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton) passed away today at the age of 88:
"I think honesty is of the first, utmost importance in art... any art. After that comes technique and... after that comes talent. Honesty is first. All the rest of the things are important, too, but they're secondary. Without honesty, I don't care how much technique you have, you have nothing."--Linda Ronstadt
