- Known for his prolific and memorable comedic moments, playwright and screenwriter Neil Simon (who died on August 26, 2018) often used his own experiences for comic material, from "Biloxi Blues" to "Brighton Beach Memoirs." Writing gags for TV, especially Sid Caesar's "Your Show of Shows," would also inspire his play "Laughter on the 23rd Floor." He talked with correspondent Rita Braver about some of his many Broadway hits, including "Barefoot in the Park," "The Odd Couple" and "Sweet Charity," which were adapted for films and TV. She also talked with "Barefoot in the Park" star Robert Redford, and with Richard Dreyfuss, who would win an Oscar for starring in Simon's "The Goodbye Girl." (Originally broadcast on October 29, 2006.)

Great writer. I've gotten into him lately, by watching some of his older work.
Brighton Beach Memoirs is lovely
Neil Simon July 4, 1927 ----- August 26, 2018 at 91
His passing was barely mentioned in the mainstream news media as they were too busy endlessly going on for over a week about Aretha Franklin and John McCain and using those funerals to bash Trump.
RIP Mr Simon.
