Blair Brown- A Feminine Ending
New York Times: "SHE’S been a Shakespeare queen, a clean-freak doctor, a best-selling landscape historian, a first lady and Molly Dodd on the proto-“Sex and the City” TV show. But only recently has the actress Blair Brown, 60, begun directing for the theater. Her first try was last year with the Off Broadway play “Lovely Day.” Now, four decades after this Washington-born Tony winner made her stage debut just out of the National Theater School of Canada, soon followed by starring roles for Joseph Papp, Michael Blakemore, Trevor Nunn and Emily Mann, she is directing the New York premiere of Sarah Treem’s “Feminine Ending,” which begins previews at Playwrights Horizons on Thursday."

This was a semi-interesting article. It was nice to hear how her life has progressed and the different career paths she has managed to choose, but at the same time, I feel that bringing it back to the feminist issue of living in a "man's world" sort of ruined the article for me. Made the ending far too cliche and came to less of a conclusion than I expected.
