Graham Moore (born 1981) is an American screenwriter and author widely known for his 2010 novel ''The Sherlockian'',〔(Fiction Book Group: "The Sherlockian" ), newsofmillcreek.com; accessed February 23, 2015.〕 as well as his screenplay for the historical film ''The Imitation Game'',〔("Black Bear Pictures Wins Graham Moore Black List Script ''Imitation Game''" ), Deadline.com; accessed February 23, 2015.〕 which topped the 2011 Black List for screenplays and won the 2014 Academy Award for Best Adapted Screenplay (awarded February 2015). ==Background== Moore was born in Chicago, Illinois and raised on the city's north side — "the son of two lawyers who divorced and then married two other lawyers." Raised Jewish,〔 Moore graduated from the University of Chicago Laboratory Schools〔〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=RISING STAR PROFESSIONAL ACHIEVEMENT AWARD )〕 in 1999 and received a bachelor of arts degree in religious history in 2003 from Columbia University. Moore developed a strong love of mystery stories when he was learning to read, later believing he'd have a career in music.〔 Alan Turing had been Moore's childhood hero since he was 14. At Columbia, unsure about a writing career, Moore took the advice of a professor to dedicate five years to any profession he pursued, "because it takes that long to get halfway decent at anything."〔 Moore stayed in New York, playing in a number of rock bands, creating a music studio in the basement of a heavy metal art gallery on Rivington Street, working as a sound engineer (including work on several Garnier shampoo commercials),〔 collecting sound equipment〔 and beginning his writing career. For several years, he wrote scripts every day from 10-6 with a friend he'd known since he was 6, Ben Epstein — followed by evening studio work.〔 Early on, Moore would wake up in his small New York apartment and dress in a coat and tie before sitting down to write, "telling myself writing was my job and I was getting dressed for work—which was like telling myself, dress for the job you want." His first book, ''The Sherlockian,'' was on the New York Times bestseller list for three weeks.〔 During his Academy Award acceptance speech in February 2015, Moore acknowledged he had attempted suicide when he was 16. Moore lives in Los Angeles, California. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Graham Moore (writer)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
