Lehman.〔http://www.encyclopedia.com/topic/Ernest_Lehman.aspx〕 He was from a wealthy Jewish Long Island family whose fortunes were seriously affected by the Great Depression. Upon his graduation from College of the City of New York (The City College of New York), Lehman became a freelance writer. Lehman felt that freelancing was a "very nervous way to make a living" so he began writing copy for a publicity firm which focused on plays and celebrities. This experience helped form the basis of his 1957 film ''Sweet Smell of Success'', which he co-wrote with Clifford Odets. Lehman wrote many short stories and novellas for magazines like ''Colliers'', ''Redbook'' and ''Cosmopolitan''. These attracted the attention of Hollywood and in the mid-1950s Paramount Pictures signed him to a writing contract. His first film, ''Executive Suite'', was a success and he was asked to collaborate on the romantic comedy ''Sabrina'', which also became a hit. Some of his most visible contributions to the Hollywood canon are the screenplay adaptations of ''West Side Story''〔 and the mega-hit film version of ''The Sound of Music''.〔
