American screen writer
Betty Comden was an American screen writer. Along with Adolph Green (1914 - 2002), Comden was one-half of the musical duo Comden and Green, the writing team who penned the screenplays and songs for some of the most beloved movie musicals. They wrote the screenplay for Good News, starring June Allyson and Peter Lawford, The Barkleys of Broadway for Ginger Rogers and Fred Astaire, and then adapted On the Town for Frank Sinatra and Gene Kelly, scrapping most of Bernstein´s music at the request of Arthur Freed, who did not care for the Bernstein score.
