biography
Two-time Oscar-winner William Goldman is one of the finest storytellers ever to work in Hollywood. He tackled other mediums first, publishing a novel, "The Temple of Gold" (1957), which he followed with two more works of fiction before turning his attention to the theater. With his older brother James, Goldman wrote the 1961 play "Blood, Sweat, and Stanley Poole" and the pair later co-wrote the book for the ill-fated 1962 Broadway musical "A Family Affair" (with a score by John Kander and James Goldman). He received his initial film credit for "Soldier in the Rain" (1963), based on his 1960
