Biographical History
Frank Daniel Gilroy was an American author and filmmaker, best known for the prize-winning play, The Subject Was Roses. Born in The Bronx, New York, Gilroy joined the Army out of high school and served two and one-half years as a World War II infantryman before graduating from Harvard and studying at Yale. He began his career writing teleplays for various television shows before moving on to drama and finding success with Who'll Save the Plowboy? and The Subject Was Roses, which won a Tony Award, a New York Drama Critics Circle Award, and a Pulitzer Prize.
