Kazan who directed "A Streetcar Named Desire" (4)

I believe the answer is:

elia

(Other definitions for elia that I've seen before include "Charles Lamb's pen name" , "1A [SHEEPISH] part of 26 [LAMB-DA]" , "Pseudonym of Charles Lamb, 1775-1834" , "Essays of - (Charles Lamb)" , "Pen-name of essayist Charles Lamb" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times.
