Artistic fun at play

On February 10th 2001 the playwright Arthur Miller died exposing a forty year old secret. Miller had a son Danny born in 1966 with Down syndrome. Miller sent hi...m to live in an institution despite the objections of Danny’s mother, the photographer Inge Morath. Miller wrote him out of his life from then on. For example, Danny wasn’t mentioned in his autobiography Timebends or in his obituary. Danny now lives in the community with a couple who are his second family. He has a job, is active in sports and is a vocal critic of institutions. No photo of him has ever been published. According to Jean Bowen, a Connecticut disability-rights advocate, the important part of the story is that Danny transcended his father’s denial: He’s made a life for himself; he is deeply valued and very, very loved. What a loss for Arthur Miller that he couldn’t see how extraordinary his son is. Danny is now reunited with his sister Rebecca Miller. She credits her husband, the actor Daniel Day-Lewis, for breathing fresh life into her relationship with her brother.
