Joseph Anthony

Joseph Anthony

Joseph Anthony (May 24, 1912– January 20, 1993) was an American playwright and director.

Born in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, Anthony's first Broadway credit was as the author of the 1934 play "A Ship Comes In". Three years later he debuted as an actor and appeared in "Lady in the Dark", "Peer Gynt", and "Camino Real", among others. He ultimately directed numerous Broadway productions, including "The Rainmaker", "The Most Happy Fella", "The Best Man", "Rhinoceros", "Mary, Mary", "110 in the Shade", and the infamously ill-fated David Merrick-produced musical version of "Breakfast at Tiffany's". He was nominated for a Best Director Tony Award five times but never won.

Anthony's film credits include " The Rainmaker" (1956), "The Matchmaker" (1958), "All in a Night's Work" (1961) and "Tomorrow" (1972).

Anthony died in Hyannis, Massachusetts.
