Sam Shepard had a great impact on theatre. ... Over thirty of his plays were produced in New York before Shepard was thirty years old.
Son of an air force man, Samuel Shepard Rogers VII was born November 5, 1943, in Fort Sheridan, Illinois. ... The Magic Theatre in San Francisco later appointed Shepard playwright-in-residence. ... Shepard moved to London in 1971. ... Shepard is now married to Jessica Lang and has two children, Hannah and Walker. ... Shepard also won the New York Drama Critic’s Circle Award for A Lie of the Mind in 1985 and a Pulitzer Prize in 1979 for Buried Child. ...
It seems, to Shepard, the entire world is a stage on which to perform a large assortment of roles. ... And it is this ambivalence that has, for Shepard, been not only his primary subject, but his personal mode as well, sending the artist on an impossible quest to stave off anxiety with the hope that a redeeming truth might yet come across to the audience.
