The will of Pulitzer and Tony Award winning author and playwright Edward Albee was recently admitted to probate in the Suffolk County Surrogate’s Court, which directed his executors to destroy some of his works.

Albee passed away on Sept. 1, 2016 without a spouse, children or close relatives. His executors are accountant Arnold Toren and designer William Katz. As of this date, it appears that no one with legal authority (if any) has contested his last will and testament, which has been sparking controversial debates regarding these final wishes.
