Fuller, Charles

▪ American author
in full  Charles H. Fuller, Jr.  
born March 5, 1939, Philadelphia, Pa., U.S.

      American playwright who is best known for A Soldier's Play (1981), which won the 1982 Pulitzer Prize for drama.

      Fuller attended Villanova University (1956–58) and La Salle College (1965–67) and served in the U.S. Army from 1959 to 1962. In 1967 he cofounded the Afro-American Arts Theatre in Philadelphia, and he was codirector from 1967 to 1971. His play The Village: A Party (1968) is a drama of racial tensions among a community of racially mixed couples. During the 1970s he wrote plays for the Henry Street Settlement theatre in New York, and in 1974 the Negro Ensemble Company produced his In the Deepest Part of Sleep. He based The Brownsville Raid (1975) on an actual incident involving the dishonourable discharge in 1906 of an entire black U.S. Army regiment for inciting a riot (they were exonerated in 1972).

      In Zooman and the Sign (produced 1980; published 1982) Fuller presented a father's search for the killer of his daughter. A Soldier's Play follows the investigation by a black army captain of the murder of a black soldier at a base in Louisiana. Fuller also wrote the screenplay of the filmed version, which appeared in 1984. After A Soldier's Play, Fuller began work on a projected five-part series of plays devoted to African American history during the Civil War and Reconstruction periods. The first three parts of this series appeared as Sally (first performed 1988), Prince (first performed 1988), and Jonquil (first performed 1990).
