Arthur Hornblow (1865-1942) was a British-born playwright and editor who became well-known for his work in the theatre. Born in Manchester, United Kingdom, Hornblow moved to the United States, where he made significant contributions to the Broadway stage. As an editor for Theatre Magazine, he was closely involved in the theatre community and wrote several successful plays. In addition to his work as a playwright, Hornblow's individual plays earned recognition for their engaging narratives and dramatic flair. He also had a hand in writing and editing for the broader theatre industry, influencing both the creation and direction of numerous productions. Hornblow's career spanned several decades, and his impact on American theatre was notable during the early 20th century.
