Question
A play by this author that begins with the Taussig brothers printing leaflets about the American embargo of the Nazis contains the first use of the phrase “male chauvinism.” A character created by this author proclaims that after his grandfather died, “I was born! I swear to God, I’m one week old!” This author’s play Till the Day I Die was written to accompany a play in which one character states that his brother Sam joined the Navy and will probably go to Cuba, which is where (*) Hennie plans to go with Moe Axelrod in a different play by this author. This author, who wrote about the struggles of the Berger family in a play set in the Bronx, also wrote a play whose seventh and final vignette ends after a body is found, leading Agate to lead a chant calling for a strike. For 10 points, name this playwright of Awake and Sing! and Waiting for Lefty. ■END■
