ABOUT PAUL ROBESON Paul Robeson is best known for his iconic baritone (he performed two recitals at BAM) and lead- ing roles in The Emperor Jones, Show Boat, and Othello—a remarkable accomplishment despite the fact that his star rose at a time when segregation was legal. But his life trajectory took twists and turns and Robeson wore many hats as a public figure and outspoken champion of peace and justice.

Robeson was a scholarship student—and the third black student ever—at Rutgers University, where he played varsity football and was a two-time All-American. He graduated from Columbia Law School in 1923, though worked only briefly as a lawyer, citing intolerable racism. As an activist, among the causes he most ardently supported were antilynching legislation in America, Indian independence from Britain, anticolonialism in Africa, and organized labor.

Robeson, who was blacklisted, was a lifelong supporter of Stalin and the Soviet project, perform- ing concerts in Moscow and receiving the International Stalin Prize in 1952. In a professional resurgence, in 1958 Robeson released Here I Stand, part manifesto, part autobiography. He also played the title role in the RSC’s 1959 production of Othello. After a series of mental and physical illnesses, he returned to the US and lived for the next 13 years in seclusion. Robeson died in Philadelphia in 1976. The Tallest Tree in the Forest

AUTHOR’S PROGRAM NOTE

In writing this play, I used research from a multitude of books, films and other sources. In the end, though, the play is my original writing, since the research has been filtered through my imagination and personal understanding of this complicated man. I have taken some poetic license, when necessary, to meet the unique conventions of theatrical storytelling. Still, I hope The Tallest Tree in the Forest honors the spirit and truth of Paul Robeson’s life and character.

—Daniel Beaty
