Wendy and the Lost Boys<br />

The Uncommon Life of Wendy Wasserstein<br />

Julie Salamon<br />

In this exceptional biography, bestselling author Julie Salamon<br />

reveals Wendy Wasserstein’s most expertly crafted character: herself.<br />

Winner of the Pulitzer Prize and the first woman playwright<br />

to win a Tony Award, Wasserstein was a Broadway luminary.<br />

With her high-pitched giggle and unkempt curls, she projected an<br />

image of warmth and familiarity and was cherished confidante to<br />

many. She kept her inner life a secret, hiding the pain of her family’s<br />

past and her own medical odyssey from those closest to her.<br />

An intimate portrait of a complicated woman, Wendy and the Lost<br />

Boys is also a nuanced study of the generation Wasserstein came<br />

to represent.<br />

n A New York Times bestseller<br />

n Wendy Wasserstein won the Pulitzer Prize and a Tony Award for<br />

Best Play for her acclaimed play The Heidi Chronicles<br />
