Lawrence and Lee, playwriting team. Jerome Lawrence (1915–2004), a native of Cleveland and a graduate of Ohio State University, collaborated on all his major works with Robert E. Lee (1918–94), a native of Elyria, Ohio, who was educated at Ohio Wesleyan and Drake. They wrote the books for such musicals as
Look, Ma, I'm Dancin'! (1948) and
Mame (1966), the latter taken from their popular play,
Auntie Mame (1956), which in turn had been based on a best‐selling novel. The team's plays include
The Incomparable Max (1971) and
First Monday in October (1978), but their most notable drama was
Inherit the Wind (1955), a retelling of the 1925 Scopes “Monkey” trial. Another work,
The Night Thoreau Spent in Jail, was popular regionally but never played in New York.
