These come off the person record, which names a work and not a production. So we can say this name is attached to the work and we cannot say which staging, or in what capacity. For a composer or a writer that is the whole career we hold; there is no cast list to find them in.

- Pardon My English, it turned out, had a wonderfully silly book by Herbert Fields and Morrie Ryskind (to which David Ives, who did the adaptation, contributed much of his own wit.)

- The playwright David Ives sees it this way: ‘It can’t be an accident that the ancient Greeks contributed three basic elements to western civilisation: democracy, the theatre and the small Greek salad.… Is there, then, some intrinsic connection between a great, difficult popular art form and a great, difficult popular political system?’ Iv…ebooks/Steyn, Mark/Broadway Babies Say Goodnight_ Musicals Then and Now - Mark Steyn.txt

What this page does not know
- What this person played. No cast list we hold records a character against a performer.
- Any staging. This name appears in no production cast list we hold — 1,877 of 7,139 people are in that position, most of them writers, composers and designers rather than performers.
- Any portrait. 1,626 of 7,139 people have one, so this is the usual case rather than the exception.
- Which of the credits above the roles on this record — book writer — apply to. The roles sit on the person and never on a credit, so a director who also acted looks the same here as one who did not.
