Neil Simon (19272018) began as a writer for some of the leading comedians of the dayincluding Jackie Gleason, Red Buttons, Phil Silvers, and Jerry Lewisand he wrote for fabled television programs alongside a group of writers that included Mel Brooks, Woody Allen, Larry Gelbart, Michael Stewart, and Sid Caesar. After television, Simon embarked on a playwriting career. In the next four decades he saw twenty-eight of his plays and five musicals produced on Broadway. Thirteen of those plays and three of the musicals ran for more than five hundred performances. He was even more widely known for his screenplayssome twenty-five in all. Yet, despite this success, it was not until his BB TrilogyBrighton Beach Memoirs, Biloxi Blues, and Broadway Boundthat critics and scholars began to take Simon seriously as a literary figure. This change in perspective culminated in 1991 when his play Lost in Yonkers won the Pulitzer Prize for Drama. In the twenty-two interviews included in Conversations with Neil Simon, Simon talks candidly about what it was like to write commercially successful plays that were dismissed by critics and scholars.
