Introducing The Marbury Project: Covering Women in the Arts

The Clyde Fitch Report: And so we are introducing The Marbury Project. It is named after Elisabeth Marbury, a contemporary of Clyde Fitch and one of the unsung heroines of American theater. Marbury was one of the first female theater and literary agents in America. She introduced the U.S. to Oscar Wilde, George Bernard Shaw and promoted the careers of African-American writers of the Harlem Renaissance. She was also Fitch’s agent and friend.
