A terrific interview with soap writer/playwright/memoirist Harding Lemay from 1997.

My favorite quote from it: "ABC asked me to watch THE CITY [a now-defunct soap]. I found it to be disastrous. It was all about the same kinds of people. Sixteen characters who are all alike. They didn't have a generational thing. Take 'Hamlet.' If you cut out the generational thing, you don't have a play. You have Hamlet and his buddies."
