# George Cram Cook

> George Cram Cook or Jig Cook was an American theatre producer, director, playwright, novelist, poet, and university professor. Believing it was his personal mission to inspire others, Cook, along with his wife, author Susan Glaspell, led the founding of the Provincetown Players in Cape Cod in 1915; their "creative collective" was considered the first modern American theatre company. During his seven-year tenure with the group, Cook oversaw the production of nearly one-hundred new plays by fifty American playwrights. He is particularly remembered for producing the first plays of Eugene O'Neill, Susan Glaspell, and several other noted writers.

*Playwright, author, poet (1873-1924)*
