Carnegie is a play inspired by the life of Andrew Carnegie, a Scottish native who traveled to America with his parents as a thirteen-year-old boy in 1848. Although he started out as a mere telegrapher, over time he rose to become one of the most influential magnates of the steel industry and is still considered an icon of the American dream. Andrew Carnegie was also a patron and philanthropist. After his death in 1919, more than 350 million dollars were bequeathed to various foundations and 30 million to charities. Thanks to his donations, nearly 2500 public libraries were established, which still bear his name.
