More DescriptionBorn in Fredericton, New Brunswick, Sharon Pollock has established a strong reputation across the country as an actor, a playwright, and a director. Best known for such plays as Walsh, The Komagata Maru Incident, and Blood Relations, Pollock has been associated mainly with the theatres of western Canada, particularly with Theatre Calgary, but her two Governor General's Awards testify to her strong national reputation. The Sharon Pollock Papers depict the growth and development of this outstanding dramatist, as well as providing a rich source for the study of Canadian drama in general. The papers are introduced with an exhaustive and scholarly biocritical essay by Professor Denis Salter of McGill University, and constitute a major addition to the Canadian Archival Series.
