Richard Gilman

Age: 83

drama critic whose championing of abstract, absurd, and highly cerebral plays and disdain for more popular and commercial character-based entertainment made him a polarizing figure among his peers. A professor at the Yale School of Drama, he wrote five books of criticism and a memoir.

Died: Kusatsu, Japan, Oct. 28, 2006
