Collection Description

Biographical Note

Alfred Uhry, playwright, screenwriter, and lyricist, was born in 1936 in Atlanta, Georgia, to Ralph K. Uhry and Alene (Fox) Uhry. His father was a furniture designer and artist, and his mother was a social worker. Uhry attended Druid Hills High School (Atlanta, Georgia) and Brown University (Providence, Rhode Island). His first stage success was an adaption of Eudora Welty's The Robber Bridegroom, in 1978. He later wrote the play Driving Miss Daisy, which tells the story of the relationship between an elderly white southern woman and her African American chauffer. The play won a Pulitzer Prize for drama in 1988; Uhry's screenplay for the film adaptation later won an Academy Award in 1989. His musical about the trial of Leo Frank, Parade, won a Tony Award in 1999 making Uhry the only playwright to have won all three awards. In addition to his numerous plays, Uhry has written or collaborated on screenplays including Mystic Pizza (1988) and Rich in Love (1992). Much of his original work focuses on Jewish life in the American South.

Uhry married Joanna Kellogg in 1959 and the couple has four daughters: Emily, Elizabeth, Kate, and Nell.
