The genre-defining works of novelist-playwright
Ira Levin (1929–2007) include such indelible titles as
Rosemary’s Baby,
The Stepford Wives,
The Boys from Brazil, and
Deathtrap—the fifth longest-running play in Broadway history. At home in nearly every genre—horror (
Rosemary’s Baby), crime (Edgar-winning
A Kiss Before Dying), science fiction (
This Perfect Day), comedy (
No Time For Sergeants), even a Broadway musical (
Drat! The Cat!)—Levin’s enduring works continue to resonate with readers and audiences, serving as iconic cultural and creative touchstones. Learn more at Levin’s official website, IraLevin.org.
