Veiller, Bayard

Bayard Veiller (1869 - 1943) was an American screenwriter, producer and film director. He wrote thirty plays before taking his place in the world's hall of fame. He "did police" for a New York daily where he learned how to portray human nature just as it is. He was married to the English actress Margaret Wycherly from 1901 to 1922; their son, Anthony Veiller, was also a screenwriter.
