    What I find fascinating is that he, along with John Crawford, co-authored "The Ballad of Cable Hogue" for Sam Peckinphah, one of the director's best films, yet he never wrote again after that.

    I am Ed's daughter. He won an oratory contest at age 16 and went to work for Orson Welles at Mercury Theater. Then wrote for Ed Skelton and Cecil B. de Mille (The Ten Commandments).

      Thank you for the information. He deserves more credit than he got.
