Lillian Hellman emerged as a prominent voice in American theater with her groundbreaking play, The Children's Hour, which boldly addressed themes of lesbianism. Her prolific career spanned from 1934 to 1963, producing eight original plays and four adaptations, including the award-winning Watch on the Rhine and Toys in the Attic. Beyond playwriting, Hellman authored memoirs, edited significant literary works, and wrote screenplays, with her most famous piece being The Little Foxes, a critique of greed and moral decay in a Southern family.
