His third wife was the photographer Inge Morath. In 1956 he married the film actress Marilyn Monroe. Miller testified before this committee, but refused to implicate any of his friends as Communists, which resulted in his blacklisting. In 1952, Miller wrote The Crucible, a play about the 1692 Salem witch trials that functioned as an allegory for the purges among entertainers and media figures by the House Un-American Activities Committee. He wrote Death of a Salesman in 1948, which won a Tony Award as well as the Pulitzer Prize, and made him a star. His first play, The Man Who Had All the Luck opened in 1944, but Miller had his first real success with All My Sons (1947). He married his college sweetheart, Mary Slattery, in 1940, with whom he had two children. After college, he worked for the government's Federal Theater Project, which was soon closed for fear of possible Communist infiltration. There, he received awards for his playwriting. Miller was unintellectual as a boy, but decided to become a writer and attended the University of Michigan to study journalism. In the stock crash of 1929, his father's clothing business failed and the family moved to more affordable housing in Brooklyn. Arthur Miller was born into a middle-class Jewish family in Manhattan.
