One of the great

Jose Quintero knew theater like a brain surgeon. His work on particularly Eugene O'Neill works is legendary. This books is a must for actors. You can not be helped by Quintero any longer but this book will share some of his genius.

Nothing but Praise

The best book on acting/directing that I have ever read. Jose Quintero creates a moving picture of himself as man and artist as he tells the history of one of the most successful theaters of our time. He photographs, with words, some of the most successful actors of stage and screen including George C. Scott, Geraldine Page, Vivian Leigh, and Jason Robards. Please read this book.
