Henry Murray (playwright)

Born Henry Darwin Murray, Jr. in New Castle Delaware, he studied theatre at Middle Tennessee State University.

Murray's first performed play, The Skeletal Remains of an American Indian by the Light of the Harvest Moon, was presented at the Back Alley Theatre in Los Angeles.

In 2009, award-winning Rogue Machine Theatre produced and Artistic Director John Perrin Flynn directed Murray's play Treefall to great critical acclaim.

Subsequently, it was workshopped by The Inkwell Theater in Washington, DC and in 2011 was produced at Rogue Machine Theatre in Los Angeles, with John Perrin Flynn directing.

[10] Henry Murray's writing is persistently experimental in form and tone, yet thematically returns to the tension between the isolation of the individual and need for connection.
