Driving Miss Daisy is an award-winning story of aging and prejudice in 20th-century America. Set in the playwright’s hometown of Atlanta, and spanning the 25 tumultuous years of the civil rights movement, this Pulitzer Prize-winning drama fluidly navigates the trying journey and prickly relationship of two memorable characters: the aging, crotchety Southern matron, Daisy Werthan, and her proud yet soft-spoken African-American chauffeur, Hoke Colburn.
