A New Book Reflects on the Legacy of Pulitzer Prize-Winning Playwright, UNC Professor Paul Green

Posted Sep 15, 2024
Paul Green's longest legacy, The Lost Colony, first produced in 1937, is still running today at the Outer Banks every summer. His literary friendships—with Zora Neale Hurston, Richard Wright, and Sherwood Anderson, among others—ran deep. A graduate of UNC, Green continued his career at the state’s flagship university, teaching philosophy and the dramatic arts. (Indy Week)
