About the Creator
Alfred Uhry is distinguished as the first American playwright to have won a Pulitzer Prize, an Academy Award and two Tony Awards. A 1958 graduate of Brown University, he began his professional career as a lyric writer under contract to the late Frank Loesser. He made his Broadway debut in 1968 with
Here's Where I Belong, which ran for one night. He had better luck with
The Robber Bridgeroom in 1976, which won him his first Tony nomination and will be revived at the Roundabout Theatre in New York early next year. He followed that with five rec-created musicals at the Goodspeed Opera House in East Haddam, Connecticut. His first play was
Driving Miss Daisy, which began life at the 74 seat upstairs theater at Playwrights Horizons in 1987 and went on to run for three years and won the Pulitzer Prize in 1988. The film version, starring Morgan Freeman and Jessica Tandy, won the Academy Award as best film of 1989 and gained Uhry his own Oscar for best screenplay. His next two Broadway outings won him Tony Awards—
The Last Night of Ballyhoo, best play of 1997. And PARADE, best book of a musical in 1999. Two more plays,
Without Walls and
Edgardo Mine have been performed at major regional theaters in the last few years. His book for the musical
Lovemusik, directed by Harold Prince, won him a Drama Desk nomination in 2007.
Angel Reapers an award winning theater/dance work about the Shakers, which he created with Martha Clarke, was presented at the Signature Theatre in New York in 2016. He is presently at work on two musical theater pieces.
