On April 7th, 1980 the department of Spanish and Portuguese of New York University and the SDCFoundation sponsored a rare interview with Director Jose Quintero. In this discussion, moderated by Richard Eder, Mr. Quintero speaks about his creative process and the excitement a close collaboration with playwrights holds for him. Mr. Quintero sat down for this interview the evening after "Clothes for a Summer Hotel" closed on Broadway. He speaks candidly about this production and his ideas for O'Neill's "The Iceman Cometh", a revival that opened on Broadway five years later.
