IMDbProStarmeterSee rank
Born in Chicago, Illinois, Arthur Ross started writing in high school before making his "show biz" debut, co-writing (as a teenager) a stage show called "Meet the People" that later went to Broadway. Ross' list of film/TV credits began with the all-star spoof Au pays du rythme (1942) and then, after he served in the Army during World War II, continued with crime melodramas, Westerns, comedies, the Oscar-nominated Brubaker (1980) and a host of radio and TV series, among them Suspicion (1962).
