Summary
Playwright and film maker Neil Labute and author William Cope Moyers on this edition of Fresh Air. He's earned a reputation for writing characters who are selfish, mean, misanthropic, and misogynistic. His films include In the Company of Men and Your Friends & Neighbors. His plays include The Mercy Seat, Some Girls, and Fat Pig. The New Yorker's John Lahr says his plays are "complex and unnerving", and that "there's no playwright on the planet who is writing better." Wrecks is Labute's new one-man play starring Ed Harris. It opened last night at the Public Theatre in New York. Then, William Cope Moyers is the son of journalist Bill Moyers. He's written a new memoir about his addiction to alcohol and crack cocaine and his recovery. He's been sober for 12 years and is the vice president for external affairs at the Hazelden Foundation in Minnesota. His new memoir is Broken: My Story of Addiction and Redemption. (Broadcast Date: October 12, 2006)
