Quotes
[In a 1972 interview] Until recently, screenwriters were under contract to the studios. Now we free lance. I've always preferred to free-lance even though the money does not come in regularly and you can't count on it. I like the sound of the word, and I feel like I belong to myself. it gives me the right to say, ' I don't like this, so I won't do it.'
