Dramatist Ruth Draper Vintage Movie 1937
Filmed at "Peterloon" farm in Cincinnati in 1937 by Karol Liszniewski (my late father's piano teacher). Ruth Draper (December 2, 1884 - December 30, 1956) was an American dramatist. She specialized in character-driven monologues and monodrama. Her best known pieces include "The Italian Lesson," "Three Women and Mr. Clifford," "Doctors and Diets," and "A Church in Italy." Draper's live performances captivated audiences all over the world. Such theatre legends as George Bernard Shaw, Thornton Wilder, John Gielgud, Katharine Hepburn, Maurice Chevalier, Laurence Olivier, and Uta Hagen were among those dazzled by her art. Henry James, Henry Adams, and Edith Wharton were equally impressed. Draper died in 1956, aged 72, just hours after giving a performance on Broadway.See also: http://www.ruthdraper.com/html/aboutrd.html
