Timeline

1934

Born in Cape Town, Union of South Africa in 1934, Ronald Harwood moved to London in 1951 to pursue a career in the theatre. After attending the Royal Academy of Dramatic Arts, he joined the Shakespeare Company of Sir Donald Wolfit, one of the last 'actor-manager' of Great-Britain.

1953

From 1953 to 1958, Harwood became the personal dresser of Sir Donald. He would later draw from this experience in his play 'The Dresser' and write a biography 'Sir Donald Wolfit CBE: His life and work in the Unfashionable Theatre'.

1960

In 1960, he started a new career as a writer and would prove to be quite prolific, penning plays, novels and non-fiction books. He also worked often as a screenwriter but he seldom wrote original material directly for the screen, rather acting as an adapter sometimes of his own work. One of the recurring themes in Harwood's work is his fascination for the stage, its artists and artisans as displayed in the aforementioned 'The Dresser', his plays 'After the Lions' (about Sarah Bernard) ,'Another time' (about a gifted piano player), 'Quartet' (about aging opera singers) and his non-fiction book 'All the world's a stage', a general history of theater. Harwood also has a strong interest in the WWII period, as highlighted by the films 'Operation daybreak', 'The Statement', 'The Pianist', and his play turned to film 'Taking sides'. Based on true stories, the two last films feature once again musicians as their main characters.

1982

Was nominated for Broadway's 1982 Tony Award as author of Best Play nominee "The Dresser."

1999

His comedy, Quartet performed at the Albery Theatre in 1999, was nominated for a Laurence Olivier Theatre Award in 2000 for Best New Comedy.

2007

He is the first Oscar winning screenwriter, ever, to write a book solely about the craft of screen-writing - Ronald Harwood's Adaptations (2007).

2008

Ranked #90 on the 2008 Telegraph's list "the 100 most powerful people in British culture".

2010

He was awarded the Knight Bachelor of the Order of the British Empire in the 2010 Queen's Birthday Honours List for his services to drama.
