Albery, James (1838–89), English dramatist, whose ‘decayed gentleman’ Digby Grant in
Two Roses (1870) provided Henry
Irving with one of his first successes in London. Most of Albery's other plays, mainly taken from the French, were intended as vehicles for his wife Mary Moore (later Lady
Wyndham), the best of them being probably
The Pink Dominoes (1877) and
The Crisis (1878), the latter based on
Augier's Les Fourchambaults.
