The playwright Edward Albee died in September, and the New York theater community is celebrating his life and work in an event open to the public at 1 p.m. on Tuesday, Dec. 6, at the August Wilson Theater. Here, four people who crossed paths with this famously irascible writer recall him as a friend, a mentor and an inspiration.
