Six Degrees of Sir Francis Bacon: August Wilson

Friday, May 25th, 2007

First, read the rules of the game.

This week’s challenge is Pulizer Prize-winning playwright August Wilson.

I was able to link August Wilson to Sir Francis Bacon in six degrees or fewer, though that shouldn’t stop you from posting a longer response, or looking for a shorter one. Entries will be accepted until midnight on Thursday, May 31.

Good luck!

And congratulations to DeLisa for winning last week’s challenge by linking Paul Wolfowitz to Sir Francis Bacon in three degrees:

Paul Wolfowitz > Richard Nixon > William Shakespeare > Sir Francis Bacon

Paul Wolfowitz worked for the Arms Control and Disarmament Agency under President Richard Nixon, who in high school showed a penchant for the writings of William Shakespeare, who is believed by some to be Sir Francis Bacon.
