Neil Simon, American Playwright

Marvin Neil Simon (born July 4, 1927) is an American playwright and screenwriter. He began writing comedy scripts for radio and some popular early television shows. Among them were The Phil Silvers Show and Sid Caesar's Your Show of Shows. He began writing his own plays beginning with Come Blow Your Horn (1961). It was followed by two more successful plays, Barefoot in the Park (1963) and The Odd Couple (1965), for which he won a Tony Award. During the 1960s to 1980s, he wrote both original screenplays and stage plays, with some films actually based on his plays. His style ranged from romantic comedy to farce to more serious dramatic comedy. Overall, he has garnered seventeen Tony nominations and won three. After Simon won the Pulitzer Prize for drama in 1991 for Lost in Yonkers, critics began to take notice of the depths, complexity and issues of universal interest in his stories, which expressed serious concerns of most average people. He has received more combined Oscar and Tony nominations than any other writer. Photographed by Al Ravenna for New York World Telegram & Sun, 1966.
