Eugene O'Neill, an American writer, died of cerebellar cortical atrophy at the age of 65 in 1953.
Eugene O'Neill was a major American theatrical dramatist. Four of his plays received the Pulitzer Prize. His major concern was the grief and pain that sensitive (easily harmed or damaged) persons went through. When O'Neill realised he was dying, he tore up six of his unfinished plays rather than have them rewritten by someone else. On November 27, 1953, he passed away.
