[edit] Hansberry's Background
Article States "The story is based upon Hansberry's own experiences growing up in Chicago's Woodlawn neighborhood" Re the article on Hansberry's family, they were very wealthy for their time. Seems as if the story was more designed to emotionalize the race struggles and less of a biography of Hansberry's own life. Loraine's father was a real estate man, and spent significant time in Washington courts, something that is not mentioned at all during the story. Any thoughts on this?--Csodennc 15:21, 21 March 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Errors in quoted section
I've just fixed a couple of grammatical errors in the quote from Lorraine Hansberry's book - a missing apostrophe, an incorrect verb, and so forth. I'm a little hesitant to change what claims to be a direct quote, but judging from the context, Lorraine was very well-spoken, and I doubt her book would have contained such errors in the final edit anyway. I have the feeling these errors were accidentally introduced by someone transcribing the quote into YAHOO. But if I'm wrong (I guess you'd have to check her original text to find out), please let me know, or revert my edits, or both. Thanks.

[edit] Error in Attribution to Philip Rose in Original Broadway Cast Section
The article has a hyperlink attributed to the wrong Philip Rose. There should be added an article for Philip Rose the Broadway Producer. The hyperlink goes to a biography of a 19th Century British Assistant Surgeon.
