Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright Neil Simon (born 1927) has become America's most prolific and popular dramatist. But then Neil realized that the problems of a successful actor aren’t nearly as interesting or universal as the problems of a struggling one, so The Goodbye Girl ultimately became a radically different story. Dustin lived down the street from us in New York that first year we were married, so we became friends and that was the inspiration for the original story. It was loosely based on Dustin Hoffman’s story of being discovered by Mike Nichols for The Graduate - the original was about a young actor getting discovered by a big director and moving with his wife and children to Hollywood and the adventures they had in Los Angeles. His parents’ relationship was volatile, and his father left.

Simon was raised in New York City and had a difficult childhood.
