Description: 1949 Woodrow Wilson High School Yearbook Washington D.C.- Romulus Linney Romulus Linney is featured in this yearbook at least twice. Once with his senior photo and another time in the basketball team photo ObituariesJanuary 16, 2011 Romulus Linney, a respected playwright who wrote dozens of plays on a wide variety of subjects over a multi-decade career, and who achieved a different sort of fame in later years as the father of actress Laura Linney, died Jan. 15 at his home in Germantown, NY. He was 80. Mr. Linney never achieved the status of household name, but in theatre circles he was considered a writer's writer, the kind of steady intellectual talent who is routinely referred to as unsung. In many ways, he was a man in the model of the thoughtful, serious-minded, literary strivers that populated the cafes and bars of New York in the 1950s and early 1960s. As such, he made his occasional sallies in fiction, writing the novels "Slowly," "By They Hand Unfurled," "Heathen Valley" (later turned into a play) and "Jesus Tales." But it was for his plays that he became best known. He won two Obie awards, one for sustained excellence in playwriting; two National Critics Awards; three Drama-Logue Awards, and many fellowships, including grants from the Guggenheim and Rockefeller Foundations. He was a member of the American Academy of Arts and Letters which, among other awards, gave him The Gold Medal for Drama.Some cover wear.
