Jo Swerling
Jo Swerling (8. april 1897. – 23. oktobar 1964.) bio je američki pozorišni posac, tekstopisac i scenarist.

Rani život i početak karijere
Rođen kao Joseph Swerling u Berdičevu, Ukrajina,[1] Swerling je bio jedan od brojnih jevrejskih izbjeglica iz carskog režima. Odrastao je na Lower East Sideu u New Yorku, gdje je prodavao novine kako bi izdržavao svoju porodicu. Radio je kao pisac u novinama i časopisima ranih 1920-ih. Napisao je "The Cinderella Girls" braće Marks, koji je propao, a također je napisao i njihov prvi film, neobjavljenu nijemu komediju, kratki film Humor Risk (1921). Postigao je veliki uspjeh sa knjigom i tekstovima za muzičku reviju The New Yorkers (1927) i predstavu The Kibitzer (1929), potonju koju je napisao zajedno sa glumcem Edvardom G. Robinsonom.
U Hollywoodu
Swerlinga je u Hollywood doveo šef Columbia Pictures Harry Cohn da radi na scenariju za Ladies of Leisure (1930) Franka Capre, prvu od nekoliko saradnji s režiserom. Njegovi deseci scenarija iz 1930-ih i 1940-ih uključuju Platinum Blonde , Behind the Mask , Once to Every Woman , The Pride of the Yankees (za koji je dobio nominaciju za Oskara), Iifeboat , Leave Her to Heaven , i It's a Wonderful Life. Također je dao neke nekreditovane tekstove za Prohujalo sa vihorom.
Nazad na Broadway
Swerling se vratio na Brodvej 1950. godine kako bi zajedno sa Abrahamom "Abeom" Burrowsom napisao knjigu za Guys and Dolls, osvojivši 1951. nagradu Tony i nagradu New York Drama Critics' Circle Award.[2]
Privatni život
Swerling je bio otac Petera Swerlinga, vodećeg svjetskog teoretičara radara u drugoj polovini 20. stoljeća, i Joa Swerlinga Jr.,[3] producenta takvih televizijskih serija kao što su Alias Smith i Jones , The Rockford Files , Baretta , The Greatest American hero, The A-team i Profit .
