About George Bernard Shaw
Irish playwright, critic and polemicist — the sharpest wit of the modern English-language stage. He used comedy to dissect class prejudice, hypocrisy and social injustice, and remains the only person to have won both a Nobel Prize in Literature and an Academy Award (for the screen adaptation of Pygmalion).
