    Biographical Note Table of Contents

    Abe Burrows (1910-1985) was a playwright, director and radio personality. Born in New York City, he began in radio as a writer for shows such as Texaco Star Theatre, Duffy's Tavern, and the Joan Davis Show. He hosted two of his own radio shows, The Abe Burrows Show (CBS, 1946-47) and Breakfast with Burrows (CBS, 1949). He often appeared as a guest on television shows such as PM East and the Dinah Shore Show.

    Burrows started his entertainment career by performing satirical songs at Hollywood parties. These songs became the basis for his radio shows, where he would perform them along with witty commentary about the issues of the day. After radio, he became a prominent Broadway director. He also wrote the books for many successful shows, including Guys and Dolls and How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying.

    Scope and Content Note Table of Contents
