Jack O'Brien (director)
Jack O'Brien (born June 18, 1939) is an American director, producer, writer and lyricist. He served as the Artistic Director of the Old Globe Theatre in San Diego, California from 1981 through the end of 2007.〔(Biography of O'Brien at the American Theatre Wing )〕
O'Brien has won three Tony Awards and been nominated for seven more, and won five Drama Desk Awards. He has directed and produced musicals, including ''The Full Monty'' and ''Hairspray'', contemporary dramas such as ''The Piano Lesson'', ''The Invention of Love'' and ''The Coast of Utopia'', Shakespeare classics, including ''Hamlet'' and ''Henry IV'' (a combination of ''Part 1'' and ''Part 2''), and operas, including ''Il trittico'' at the Metropolitan Opera''.
He has also been associated with some notorious Broadway failures. In 1972, he wrote the lyrics and co-wrote the book for ''The Selling of the President'', which closed after five performances. The Old Globe also co-produced the stage adaptation of ''Oldest Living Confederate Widow Tells All'', which closed after only one performance.
