List #52: Happy Birthday, Alan Bennett

Portrait by Tom Wood

Who: I've recently referred to playwright/screenwriter/actor/author Alan Bennett as a "Modern British Treasure," and a critic once described him as "England's cultural teddy bear." The important takeaway, though, really, is that he is good at writing things.



The Lady in the Van, 1989



The Clothes They Stood Up In, 2001



The Complete Talking Heads, (2003)



The History Boys [film], 2006
