Neil Simon, R.I.P.
If you saw a Broadway play any time in the last several decades, it was probably written by Neil Simon. He had a few failures along the way, but some of his successes not only thrived on Broadway, but also became hit television series and movies. I can almost guarantee that your funny bone has been tickled by Mr. Simon’s work at some point in your life. To me his genius was looking at American families instead of focusing on the elites and aberrants. He will be missed.
