The famous writer Arthur Miller wrote the brilliant play Death of a Salesman in 1948, and it was presented on Broadway in 1949. One of the founding figures of American drama in the 20th century is regarded as Arthur Miller. Being well-known for his work on "The Misfits," he created other plays, articles, and screenplays, making him a controversial and well-known writer in his day. Miller was inspired to write this play by a fortuitous encounter with his Uncle Manny Newman, whose name sounds similar to that of the play "Death of a Salesman" protagonist Willy Loman. Businessman Manny Newman enjoyed great success. Additionally,

Miller was also motivated by the suicides of two salespeople and another salesperson. The American Dream is the play's central topic. A popular idea that first surfaced in the early 20th century is known as the "American Dream." In his book Epic of America, historian James Truslow Adams is credited with giving the concept of monetary achievement the label "American Dream." Many people aspired to achieve financial success and enormous fortune because they felt that this was the American Dream. Miller's explanation of the American Dream is brilliant since it is an unbiased one. Miller talks on the right means to achieve the American Dream without taking a life; he does not criticise the American Dream.
