Notes
- ↑ Dates given here are for first publication in book form. Dates used in my text for “The White Negro” and An American Dream deal more precisely with time of writing and first appearance of the work in print. The bibliography and the footnotes (especially the notes to the introduction) make this clear.
- ↑ This play ran for 127 performances in an off-Broadway production beginning January 31, 1967.
