Lee Strasberg was an Academy Award nominated Austro-Hungarian-American director, actor, producer, and acting teacher. He cofounded, with directors Harold Clurman and Cheryl Crawford, the Group Theatre in 1931, which was hailed as "America's first true theatrical collective." In 1951, he became director of the non-profit Actors Studio, in New York City, considered "the nation's most prestigious acting school." In 1969, Strasberg founded the Lee Strasberg Theatre and Film Institute in New York City and in Hollywood to teach the work he pioneered. He is considered the "father of method acting in America," according to author Mel Gussow, and from the 1920s until his death in 1982 "he revolutionized the art of acting by having a profound influence on performance in American theater and movies." From his base in New York, he trained several generations of theatre and film's most illustrious talents, including Anne Bancroft, Dustin Hoffman, Montgomery Clift, James Dean, Marilyn Monroe, Julie Harris, Paul Newman, Al Pacino, Robert De Niro and director Elia Kazan.

“The definitive source book on acting.”— Los Angeles Times Marlon Brando, Al Pacino, Paul Newman, Dustin Hoffman, Dennis Hopper, Robert DeNiro, Marilyn Monroe, and Joanne Woodward—these are only a few of the many actors training in “Method” acting by the great and legendary Lee Strasberg. This revolutionary theory of acting—developed by Stanislavski and continued by Strasberg—has been a major influence on the art of acting in our time. During his last decade, Strasberg devoted himself to a work that would explain once and for all what The Method was and how it worked, as well as telling the story of its development and of the people involved with it. The result is a masterpiece of wisdom and guidance for anyone involved with the theater in any way. “A must for young actors—for old ones, too, for that matter.”— Paul Newman “An exploration of the creative process that will reward all who are interested in the nature of inspiration.”— Library Journal “An important cultural document.”— Booklist
Les cours de Lee Strasberg à l'Actors Studio ont tous été enregistrés. Robert H. Hethmon - directeur du Centre de recherche théâtrale du Wisconsin - avait obtenu de Lee Strasberg la permission de réunir en un volume certains de ses cours les plus marquants. Son choix ingénieux nous permet de constater que, bien que Strasberg ait une façon très systématique d'aborder la formation de l'acteur, il n'a pas de règles établies, pas de "méthode", contrairement à ce que l'on croit en général. Sa passion pour la psychologie de l'individu, son art de s'adapter à la personnalité de chacun et sa profonde connaissance de l'être humain apparaissent à chaque page de ce livre, passionnant non seulement pour les acteurs et les metteurs en scène, mais pour tous ceux qu'intéressent l'art théâtral et la psychologie de l'homme.

Ли Страсберг, подаривший миру таких безоговорочно гениальных актеров, как Марлон Брандо и Аль Пачино, Мэрилин Монро, Дастин Хоффман и Роберт Де Ниро, взял за основу своего метода систему Станиславского, однако переработал ее самым революционным образом в соответствии с задачами, стоящими перед исполнителями, работающими уже в современной стилистике театра и кино.В этой книге великий мастер описывает свой метод работы над ролью, а также делится воспоминаниями о том, как изобрел и развил его.
Marlon Brando, Al Pacino, Paul Newman, Dustin Hoffman, Dennis Hopper, Robert DeNiro, Marilyn Monroe – ti všichni a mnozí další prošli školením v Metodě herecké práce u legendárního Leeho Strasberga. Tato převratná teorie herectví, kterou vytvořil K. S. Stanislavskij a rozpracoval Strasberg, zásadně ovlivnila herecké umění naší doby. V posledním desetiletí svého života se Strasberg plně věnoval sepsání knihy, v níž by jednou provždy shrnul a vysvětlil, co to Metoda je a jak funguje, a zároveň v ní vyprávěl příběh o ní a o lidech, kteří s ní byli spojeni. Výsledkem je mistrovské dílo moudrosti a inspirace pro každého, kdo se tak či onak zabývá divadlem.
