THE WHITE HOUSE September 18, 1980 To family and friends of Harold Clurman, The French theatre, where Harold Clurman studied as a young man, has a famous phrase for someone who does absolutely everything in the theatre so well he seems to embody its very soul. They call him a 'Man of the Theatre.' But the American theatre has an even more special phrase for such a universal theatrical spirit. We call him Harold Clurman. When the State Department sent him to direct in Japan, I understand his actors called him 'Uncle Fireball.' He opened up the American stage to wonderful feelings, and he helped millions of Americans to share them. He brought us a world of new knowledge -- from the Group Theatre to Broadway; from the Comedie Francaise to Stanislavsky; from the Yiddish theatre of the lower east side to Carson McCullers of Columbus, Georgia. I am pleased to join you in honoring the actor, director, critic, teacher, and living spirit of the American theatre -- Harold Clurman.
