Neil Simon is an American playwright and screenwriter.

In 1961, Simon’s first Broadway play, Come Blow Your Horn, opened at the Brooks Atkinson Theatre, where it ran for 677 performances. Six weeks after its closing, his second production, the musical Little Me (starring former boss Caesar), opened to mixed reviews. Although it failed to attract a large audience, it earned Simon his first Tony Award nomination. He has won a total of three and has been nominated for an additional fourteen.

His prolific output includes light comedies (Barefoot in the Park, The Odd Couple), darker, more autobiographical works (Chapter Two, the Eugene trilogy comprised of Brighton Beach Memoirs, Biloxi Blues, and Broadway Bound), musical comedies (Sweet Charity), and original screenplays (The Out-of-Towners, Murder by Death, The Goodbye Girl).
