- Sometimes wrote under the pseudonyms Pierre Marton or Peter Joshua.
- He became the first writer to win a Tony (several), an Oscar (Operación Whisky (1964)), and an Emmy (an episode of Los defensores (1961)).
- His father was a former history teacher, who moved his family to Los Angeles in the 1920s to work as a producer and screenwriter at Fox Studios, specializing in cowboy movies starring Tom Mix.
- President of The Dramatists Guild of North America from 1981-1999, at 18 years, the longest period to date that anyone has served in that capacity.
- He graduated from University High School in Los Angeles.
- The audience is wrong individually and always right collectively. If they don't laugh, it isn't funny. If they cough, it isn't interesting. If they walk out, you are in trouble.
- A book is a concept and a structure, and dialogue is the smallest part. You can have the best score in the world, but if the book is weak, it won't work. On the other hand, if the book is good, it can carry a mediocre score.
- [accepting his Oscar for "Father Goose"]: I'd like to thank Cary Grant, who keeps winning these things for other people.
