Biography
Early years
Behrman's parents, Zelda (Feingold) and Joseph Behrman, emigrated from what is now Lithuania to the United States,[1] where Samuel Nathaniel Behrman was born, the youngest of three sons, in a tenement in Worcester, Massachusetts in 1893.[2] His parents spoke little English, and his father was a Talmudic scholar.
(Though known for his sophisticated comedies and worldly characters, Behrman fondly dramatized his family-centered, impoverished childhood in one of his last plays, the 1958 The Cold Wind And The Warm, an autobiographical drama starring Eli Wallach, Maureen Stapleton, and Morris Carnovsky.[3]) His own path, however, took him far from the Orthodox world of his parents.
