First name Jerome
Jerome Lawrence is an American playwright and author. After graduating from Ohio State University in 1937 and the University of California at Los Angeles in 1939, Lawrence partnered with Robert Edwin Lee to help found Armed Forces Radio. The two built a lifelong partnership and continued to collaborate on films and musical scripts until Lee's death in 1994. Lawrence and Lee were acclaimed for the 1955 play Inherit the Wind, based on the Scopes Trial. Lawrence described the couple's play as "a sharp theme of the dignity of each individual soul and that spirit's enduring struggle against limitation and censorship." The two deliberately avoided Broadway later in their careers and founded the American Theater in 1963 to help promote their play. After Lee's death, Lawrence continued to write plays at his home in Malibu, California. He died in Malibu on February 29, 2004 from a stroke.
