Rice's career spanned over four decades and he won numerous awards for his writing, including the Pulitzer Prize for Drama in 1929. He was also a founding member of the Provincetown Players, an influential theater group that helped launch the careers of many other prominent playwrights.

His plays continue to be performed around the world today, ensuring that his legacy lives on.
