Some Sort of a Life by Miriam Karlin
In "Some Sort of A Life", Miriam Karlin talks to Jan Sargent about her early life training as an actress in London during the war, the extraordinary origins of her very left-wing politics and absolute commitment to justice. Her passionate views are reflected in her feelings about people, and hold surprising revelations and intimate reflections on her relationships with friends, lovers, colleagues and the theatre world of the last fifty years.
Miriam Karlin is perhaps best known for playing the belligerent, militant shop steward Paddy in the The Rag Trade, or the unfortunate housewife in A Clockwork Orange, but she has long been an accomplished actress on stage and screen, as well as a political campaigner of formidable talent and prominence, particularly in her work for the actors' trade union, Equity.
