George Jean Nathan created modern American drama criticism, and his half-century as a drama critic sums up the most significant era of the American theater. His determination to blend into Manhattan's cosmopolitan backdrop is indicative of the struggle to define what precisely an American identity is. That a cultural commentator of Nathan's status had such difficulty with his own identity remains as troubling as it is instructive.
