Top ten... That's interesting...
I think I have a bunch that would be floating around somewhere in there but I certainly can't pick out a number 1. Also, I think all of mine are playwrights, go figure. I love Stoppard, O'neil, Chekhov, T. Willaims, Giraudoux (even though he's French), Shakespeare of course. And I'm sure there are many more if I really thought it through. I actually think Hemingway would be up there somewhere on my list too... love him...

Now I'm going to be spending endless hours trying to figure out a top ten list! oy!

OH! I love William Carlos Williams! He is a poet but whatev.
