Moss Hart

Son Christopher Hart (born January 14, 1948).
Famous Broadway playwright
Daughter Catherine (born June 1950)
Died a year after the opening of the original Broadway production of "Camelot" by Alan Jay Lerner and Frederick Loewe, the last show that he directed.
In his 20s Hart served as entertainment director for the famous Flagler resort hotel in New York's Catskill Mountains, where he was assisted by Dore Schary, who would go on to head MGM. The hotel's main competitor was the legendary Grossinger's resort, where entertainment was headed by Don Hartman, who would continue the competition when he went on to head Paramount Pictures.

[on Beverly Hills] The most beautiful slave quarters in the world.
[on what later became "Lady in the Dark"] Kurt Weill and I sat at a table in a little midtown [Manhattan] restaurant and told each other vehemently why we should not write a musical comedy. We were both completely uninterested in doing a show for the sake of doing a show, in Broadway parlance, and the tight little formula of the musical comedy stage held no interest for either of us . . . We discovered the kind of show we both definitely DID want to do, a show in which the music carried forward the essential story and was not imposed upon the architecture of the play.
[on writing the screenplay for Nace una estrella (1954)] It was a difficult story to do because the original was so famous, and when you tamper with the original you're inviting all sorts of unfavorable criticism. It had to be changed because I had to say new things about Hollywood--which is quite a feat in itself, as the subject had been worn pretty thin. Add to that the necessity of making this a musical drama, and you'll understand the immediate problems.
[on Julie Andrews] She has that wonderful British strength that makes you wonder why they lost India.
