William Inge
William Inge was born on May 03, 1913 in USA. William Inge's big-screen debut came with Come Back, Little Sheba directed by Daniel Mann in 1952. William Inge is known for Splendor in the Grass directed by Elia Kazan, Natalie Wood stars as Wilma Dean Loomis and Pat Hingle as Ace Stamper. The most recent award William Inge achieved is Academy Awards, USA. The upcoming new movie William Inge plays is Picnic which will be released on Apr 16, 2000.
William (Motter) Inge brought small-town life in the American Midwest to Broadway with four successive dramatic triumphs: "Come Back Little Sheba" (1950), "Picnic" (1953; Pulitzer Prize), "Bus Stop" (1955) and "The Dark at the Top of the Stairs" (1957). With the exception of his Academy Award-winning screenplay for La fièvre dans le sang (1961), his later plays and prose never achieved the success of his early work. Convinced he could no longer write, Inge fell into a paralyzing depression, which resulted in his suicide.
