	La, La, Lucille: Tunes, Tomes, & Videos on TheaterMania.com
		Born Lucille Wadler on the Lower East Side of Manhattan, she was raised on the Upper West.
		What was genuine about Lortel was her remarkable taste in plays and the critical intuition that led her to champion unrecognized dramatists (Jean Genet, Athol Fugard) and known writers whose work was out of public favor (e.g., Sean O'Casey).
		Lortel's frequent tussles with the Actors' Equity Association and the infighting among ANTA Machers, for instance, are pretty rarified matters.
