Maurice Valency

Maurice Valency (March 22, 1903 – September 28, 1996) was a playwright, author, critic, and popular professor of Comparative Literature at Columbia University, best known for his award winning adaptations of plays by Jean Giraudoux and Friedrich Dürrenmatt. He wrote several original plays,〔(Theatre World 1996-1997 by John Willis ), page 260〕 but is best known for his adaptations of the plays of others. Valency's version of ''The Madwoman of Chaillot'' would become the basis of the Jerry Herman musical ''Dear World'' on Broadway.
He is also noted for his book ''The Flower and the Castle: An Introduction to Modern Drama''. John Gassner in his review of this book said that Mr. Valency brought to his work "a lifetime of study and experience as well as a viewpoint both Olympian and engaged."〔(New York Times ), ''Maurice Valency 93 theatrical master dies'', by Mel Gussow, September 29, 1996〕 Valency also wrote television plays, adaptations of librettos, novels, and academic works on Chekhov, Strindberg, Ibsen and Shaw.
