Eugène Ionesco (1909-1994) was a French-Romanian Absurdist playwright and 24-year member of the Académie française. His most essential plays, including works like Rhinocéros and The Chairs, are touchstones of mid-century French Avant-Garde theatre. A world-renowned and respected writer, Ionesco died in 1994 at the age of 84.
