Description:
N.p.: N.p., 1970. Original typescript screenplay for an unproduced film called "After the Fall," based on Arthur Miller's 1964 play about a Jewish intellectual living in New York. Miller's play opened on Broadway in 1964, at the ANTA Washington Square Theatre, ran for 208 performances, and closed on May 29, 1965.

His work also extended into television, for series like "Medical Story" (1975-1976) and "Kojak" (1973-1978), a show he helped create, and several "Kojak" television movies. Black wrappers. Title page present, undated, with credits for playwright Miller and screenwriter Mann. 195 leaves, with last page of text numbered 194. Typescript on…
