Correct response: Who is Edward Albee?
More information about Final Jeopardy:
After the Pulitzer jury was set to award Edward Albee with the 1963 Pulitzer Prize for Drama for Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf, the Advisory Board vetoed the decision, feeling that the play was “not uplifting enough”, instead choosing to give no award. Albee later won the 1967 prize for A Delicate Balance, the 1975 prize for Seascape, and the 1994 prize for Three Tall Women.
Since Alex Trebek’s diagnosis of stage 4 pancreatic cancer, many community members have been raising money. The Jeopardy! Fan Online Store is as well!
