Pulitzer playwright Inge found dead in his car
Hollywood—Pulitzer prize winning playwright William Inge was found dead early Sunday in the garage of his Hollywood Hills home. Police ruled the death a suicide by carbon monoxide poisoning after his body was discovered by his sister. Inge, 46, had been described as low in spirits in recent years and had recently checked into UCLA Medical Center for an overdose. He wrote Come Back Little Sheba Bus Stop and The Dark at the Top of the Stairs and earned the 1953 Pulitzer Prize for Picnic. He left an unfinished version of Summer Brave to open July 17 at Berkshire Theater Festival Stockbridge Massachusetts.
