First Love. Kingsley, who won his Pulitzer Award with his first play (Men in White) only five years after graduating from Cornell, will not let his newfound passion for TV keep him away from Broadway: "The theater is the Tiffany of the industry and will always be my first love. In fact, I won't do any serious thinking about TV until I've finished the play I'm working on now-a contemporary tragedy.

It was a sloppy job, but by using pumps and sheet-metal cofferdams, they reached the deep tombs that the Comacchiesi had missed. Guided by Professor Paolo Enrico Arias of the Uni versity of Catania (who wears a beret and looks, except for his red rubber boots, like a movie director of the Keystone Cop period), the laborers extracted a stream of beautiful things dating from the time when Rome was young. One tomb contained the skeleton of a young...
