Synopsis

A director, producer, actor, and author, Joshua Logan had more Broadway hits than almost anyone else. In the late 1940s Logan directed and co-authored two of Broadway's most popular productions - "Mister Roberts," written with Thomas Heggen, and "South Pacific," for which he shared a Pulitzer Prize in drama with Richard Rodgers and Oscar Hammerstein. His many other director's credits include the Broadway shows "Annie Get Your Gun" and "The World of Suzie Wong" and the films BUS STOP and CAMELOT. Logan worked in theater and film throughout his career, showing talent from the time he was a young student at Princeton University. He acted on stage before achieving his first major success as a director with "I Married an Angel," in 1938; he also produced several shows. For many years Logan struggled with manic-depressive illness, and late in life he toured the country to offer encouragement to fellow sufferers. In addition to plays, his writings include the screen adaptation of MISTER ROBERTS; its sequel, ENSIGN PULVER; and the autobiographies JOSH: MY UP AND DOWN, IN AND OUT LIFE and MOVIE STARS, REAL PEOPLE, AND ME.
