Description

1923. Stewart was an actor, humorist and screenwriter who was blacklisted for Communism in 1950. He emigrated to England in 1951 to avoid consequences of the blacklist and lived there until his death. Two of his most famous screenplays are An Affair to Remember and The Philadelphia Story. Stewart's best known book is his spoof of H. G. Wells in A Parody Outline of History. Aunt Polly's Story of Mankind is an interconnected set of comical fantasy short stories set in different ages from ancient to modern.
