William J. Monahan (born November 3, 1960) is an American screenwriter and novelist. His second produced screenplay was ''The Departed'', a film that earned him a WGA award and an Academy Award for Best Adapted Screenplay.
==Writer and editor==
Monahan was born in Dorchester, Massachusetts. He attended the University of Massachusetts Amherst, where he studied Elizabethan and Jacobean drama. He moved to New York City and contributed to the alternative weekly newspaper ''New York Press'' and the magazines ''Talk'', ''Maxim'', and ''Spy''.〔 In 1997 Monahan won a Pushcart Prize for his short story "A Relation of Various Accidents Observable in Some Animals Included in Vacuo". Monahan was an editor at ''Spy'' during the magazine's final years, where he would come in at the close of the monthly issue to rewrite articles and improve jokes.
Monahan wrote a novel titled ''Light House: A Trifle'', and Warner Bros. optioned the film rights.〔 In 1999 ''Talk'' magazine debuted, and Monahan contributed a travelogue on Gloucester, Massachusetts, to the first issue. In 2000 Monahan's first novel, ''Light House: A Trifle'', was finally published, and it garnered critical acclaim; ''The New York Times'' proclaimed, "Monahan's cocksure prose gallops along" and ''BookPage Fiction'' called Monahan "a worthy successor to Kingsley Amis." In the second half of 2001 Monahan wrote a fictional column at the ''New York Press'' under the pseudonym of Claude La Badarian, which ran for 13 weeks.
