1945
Kirk Douglas made his Walnut debut in the 1945-46 season in a play called
Woman Bites Dog, a riotous satire about an egotistic and fanatical
newspaper owner who is determined to see bogeymen in every direction.
Douglas went on to have a very successful screen career as both an actor
and producer, and father another Hollywood star, Michael Douglas.
