Overview
Lillian Hellman: A Life with Foxes and Scoundrels is the first biography of the iconoclastic playwright written with the full cooperation of her family, friends, and inner circle. Deborah Martinson moves beyond the myths around Hellman and finds the sassy, outrageous woman committed to writing, to politics, and to having her say. Martinson's researchāthrough interviews, archives, recently declassified CIA files, and her unprecedented access to Hellman's confidantsāpaints the most complete, and surprisingly admiring, portrait of this remarkable writer that we've ever had.
Distinctly Americanāa New Orleans Jew with one foot in Manhattan and one in Hollywood, a writer whose experience spanned the Great Depression, the Cold War, and the Nixon yearsāHellman lives again in this riveting biography, facing the world with wit, truth, lies, and chutzpah.
