About the author

Ridgely Torrence

1875–1950

Best remembered as a poet and playwright, he helped open new ground in American theater with works that brought Black characters and spirituals to the stage in a serious, lyrical way. His writing moved between drama, poetry, and criticism, and he was admired in literary circles in the early 20th century.
